Police Voleur "Behind the Spot"

Police Voleur is a Lebanese Indie band formed by Scarlett Saad and Kristian Abouanni. Having previously worked on various musical projects together as individual artists, “Police Voleur” came to life as a start of a new songwriting collaboration.
Growing up in Lebanon, or anywhere else in the world, provides a plethora of childhood memories to draw influences from when we become artists. The game Police Voleur (Cops and Robbers) is but one of such memories of hours spent playing the simple game. Which brings us to the band, Police Voleur. The same childlike, not childish, attitude remains in their music. The band’s sound is alternative pop inspired, a mix of western music and Lebanese lyrics.
There’s a dichotomy that needs to be drawn here. The difference between taking music seriously without being taken too seriously. The songs themselves are serious. Raw emotions of denial, of pain, of love all run rampant in the themes of Police Voleur’s tracks. The approach however, is what keeps the band in touch with their inner child, ensuring the “fun” factor of the music. Just like playing as children. You want to play. You don’t want your team to lose. But if it isn’t fun, why play in the first place?
