About Poubelle International
Biography
POUBELLE INTERNATIONAL is a three-piece band that was formed in 2007 by three finely bearded designers over a lavish but bland three-course dinner. After having smoked three cigarettes in silence and feeling strangely content with their three tall glasses of Tanqueray, the trio shook hands and agreed upon a common mission; to play it loud!
Poubelle International write three-minute songs about three different subjects – true lust, broken trust and plain wishful thinking. They practice playing their three different instruments three times a week on the third floor of a warehouse situated three blocks from a corner where a girl sells her used powertools.

The trio aim to write simple, addictive songs… and deliver them loud enough to make boys tap their feet and girls shake their girly bits.
