Herman Dune, the most Californian of French songwriters and a defining figure of anti-folk, presents Odysseús, a musical journey through his tumultuous life, set for release on June 13, 2025, via Santa Cruz Records. He will embark on a heroic solo tour across Europe and the UK.
Founded in the late 1990s, Herman Dune is the project of Franco-Swedish artist David Ivar. Drawing from folk influences (Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen), country (Townes Van Zandt, John Prine), and indie-folk (Elliot Smith, Lucinda Williams, Silver Jews), David Ivar, born and raised in Paris, had to create his own scene to express himself at a time when singing in English with an acoustic guitar on Parisian stages was considered absurd.
Since 2015, Herman Dune has been based in San Pedro, the working-class, port district of Los Angeles – a mecca of Californian punk rock (Minute Men, Black Flag) – with his wife and collaborator Mayon, and their three black cats. From his California bungalow, he runs his own label (Santa Cruz Records), has released six albums, out of a total of fifteen( Sweet Thursday, Santa Cruz Gold, Notes From Vinegar Hill, and the trilogy The Portable Herman Dune Vol. 1-3), and has composed several film scores, including Mariage à Mendoza and Pétaouchnock (both by Edouard Deluc).
Hayley Savage is a songwriter and guitarist blending folk and Americana with rich vocals, storytelling and intimacy.
