Chester French: Peaches Geldof’s hubby might be even more talented than she is

If you think La Roux have been hyped, check out what’s happened to Chester French before even releasing a record.
So, first they graduated from Harvard.
Then they:
- Were the subject of a bidding war between Kanye West and Pharrell Williams’ record labels. Pharrell won.
- Had an unmastered version of their track “She Loves Everybody” featured on an episode of Entourage.
- Supported N.E.R.D on tour.
- Have appeared in publications such as Rolling Stone, Vibe, Details, Interview, GQ, Teen Vogue and Nylon.
- Married a Geldof (well, one of them has. Not him, above. The other one.).

Yes, this is that band that guy who married Peaches Geldof belongs to. It looks like they’re going to be unavoidable in 2009, a suspicion further enhanced by the fact their dickhead record company won’t allow me to embed their video for “She Loves Everybody”.
It’s worth a look though, with the song a bit of a polished powerpop stormer and the accompanying clip a rather violent affair which sees the chaps having their arses handed to them on a plate by some “hottie”.
