À La Mode

About

À La Mode is a twee-psych / yéyé-dreampop band. Whimsical, sensitive lyrics are psyched out with transcendental harmonic movement and ornamented with diaphanous guitar licks and melodious synth hooks. The project is led by songwriter-composer Domo Lemoine on vocals and synths, and Ava Glendinning on electric guitar and vocal harmonies, with multi-instrumentalist 2/3 triplets Gage and Kerrigan Salnikowski.

Musical influences include Tears for Fears, Kate Bush, Mitski, Porches.

“Gifted with the ability to communicate emotional gravity and feelings of lovelorn anguish. Bouncy synth-based indie pop is À La Mode’s canvas to paint beautiful [...] imagery that also describes deep emotion." - Grayowl Point

“Dominique Lemoine’s À La Mode is a vibrant melding of indie, synth, and dream pop, old and new, that toes the tradition of light and dark dichotomy. Where brightness and optimism share space within a melancholic embrace, and does so seamlessly, blending styles for a bold, beaming, open and endearing emotional escape.” - Stylus magazine
