April March is actually one Elinore Blake (b. April 20, 1965), and, contrary to all appearances, she is not a French pixie but a Californian one. The first album she bought was England's Newest Hitmakers by the Rolling Stones, but you wouldn't know that from listening to the music of April March, which hearkens back to the pre-rock days of European pop and French ye-ye music, and has little to do with aggressive textures or rhythms. Through the '90s, Blake has recorded often under the April March guise, usually gaining release abroad or on small indie labels in America.
