Peppermoon les petits miroirs snippet
Peppermoon is a Parisian pop band, formed in spring 2006 by Pierre Faa (songwriter, keyboards) and Iris Koshlev (vocals). Pierre and Iris first met at French singer Buzy's concert in Paris (Dec. 15, 2005), at La Boule Noire. Their first guitarist was Benoît Pillon (2006–2010), then Maxime Leclerc (2010-present). One of their early demos "Les petits miroirs" was released on a Dutch compilation "Filles Fragiles", in November 2007, and they soon appeared on Dutch television (Dec. 14, 2007). Their songs were used in two shorts movies ("Laundromat" by Edward Gunawan, and "Où est la sortie ?" by Jessey Tsang).

Nos Ballades
After a few failed attempts to find a producer or a label for the album, Pierre Faa tried to do it all by himself in his Parisian home-studio, and their debut album "Nos Ballades" was finally released in spring 2009. It raised immediate interest in Asia, where the CD hit the shelves even before the French release. "Nos Ballades" was released in Taiwan (July 2009), Japan (November 2009), Korea (December 2009) and China (January 2010). In early 2010, they toured in these countries for the first time, playing in Taipei, Shanghai, Beijing, Tokyo and Kyoto. The album sold well in Taiwan, where it eventually climbed to #3 in international pop charts. In France, the album received a lot of good reviews, but sold poorly, being completely out of the French mainstream taste.
Les Moissons d'ambre
Their second album "Les moissons d'ambre" (Amber Harvests) was first released in Taiwan, in November 2010, then in France (January 2011), Korea (March 2011) and China (October 2011). It contains a collaboration with the Japanese composer-producer Toshiya Fueoka, from Mondialito ("Le Refuge"). In Taiwan the album was released as a 2-CDs set with an exclusive covers EP that includes "Qui a tué grand-maman ?" (Polnareff), "Manchester et Liverpool" (Marie Laforêt), "Tous les garçons et les filles", "Ce petit cœur" et "Comment te dire adieu" (Françoise Hardy), "La plus belle pour aller danser" (Sylvie Vartan) and "Porque Te Vas" (Jeanette).
L'avenir n'est plus comme avant
Peppermoon's songwriter Pierre Faa also released a solo album "L'avenir n'est plus comme avant", in march 2011, produced by Jay Alansky (aka A Reminiscent Drive).
