Herman Dune Biography

Herman Dune is a French duo, formed in 1999. Originally a trio, the band now consists of David-Ivar Herman Dune (guitars and vocals) and Neman Herman Dune (drums and sometimes backing vocals). Neman, who is from Switzerland, replaced former drummer Ome in early 2001. On 13 December 2006, Andre Herman Dune played his last show with the band, and subsequently changed his name to Stanley Brinks. With Andre's departure, the umlaut was dropped from the name. The band are often joined by other musicians on live performances.

Some of Herman Dune's influences include: Leiber & Stoller, Chuck Berry, Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan and Carole King.

Herman Dune have worked with several other bands and singers such as Turner Cody, Julie Doiron, Leah Hayes, Laura Hoch and the Wave Pictures.

The band is often mistaken as being Swedish, probably because Andre and David have a Swedish mother. In an interview in the Swedish newspaper Svenska Dagbladet Neman says "The band is French." David continues: "Yes, the confusion about our origin is because people are good at making things up. And we have never fought the rumours. I lived in USA for a while, and all of a sudden the band was American."

In addition to the band's own albums, its members have worked on many side projects, including Kungen, Ben Haschish, Ben Dope, John Trawlings, Fountain Boats, Satan's Fingers, and Fast Ganz. They have also played as the backing band for recordings by Julie Doiron (ex-Eric's Trip) and Kimya Dawson (ex-Moldy Peaches). Both Andre and David-Ivar have also released numerous solo CDs (mostly self-released CDRs). Andre and David-Ivar each contributed a song to the 2006 album by Francoiz Breut, Une Saison Volee. In 2006 he did a Take-Away Show video session shot by Vincent Moon.

This song 'I Wish That I Could See You Soon' was #89 on Rolling Stone's list of the 100 Best Songs of 2007.
