This intimate set will feature their signature dreamy piano and guitar melodies. Swing by Stumptown, grab a glass of wine or beer, and settle in for a melodic Sunday afternoon.

Le Son Du Couple will also be exhibiting their photographs from their time in Kyoto – Letter from Kyoto will be on display from October 26 – October 28, from 7:00 am – 19:00.

Description’Le Son Du Couple <The sound of couple in French>’ is an art project by director Huh Namhoon, and writer Moa Kim, who breaks down the boundaries between travel and life and creates books, music, and films with inspiration from those moments. It’s based on travel and life.

It is a project that is close to a kind of evocation, in which director Huh Namhoon, and writer Moa Kim, present the stories we want to tell ourselves and the world. We wanted to shout and communicate with the cultural results that we can, so we replaced <man and woman> with a couple, and <story> is the sound we want to make in the end, so we replaced it with ‘sound’ and <The sound of couple> in French, ‘Le Son Du Couple’. I named it. The reason I chose French is because if I could choose it if I were born again, it would be France. Since we were children, we immersed French films, music, literature, and art and have been greatly influenced by them. We can’t choose the country, time, method, or parents in which we are born. So that was the answer to the question we asked. “If you were to be born again, where would you want to be?”Like this, every project starts with a question.

‘Le Son Du Couple’ is an attempt to ask better questions in life, an effort and question to live independently. An attempt to put ‘why’ in front of obvious things and ask ourselves. While we were asking each other the essential question, ‘How do we want to live?’, we decided to live life like a travel and travel like life.

‘Le Son Du Couple’ is the life we want to live and travel for a certain period of time. Life and travel have an end, but because life has no end in sight, everyone forgets that there is an end. But since the journey has an end in sight, everyone works hard to fill every moment of every day. Record it in writing, photos, music, and video, show it to the world, and hold an exhibition.
