my mom was asking me to find her some french music that had a sound similar to Sigur Ros. Anybody know any good French stuff?

Well, they don't sound like Sigur Ros, but if you're looking for some good "French" music to chill to, check out Stereolab......

Eux Autres. It's kinda like a French Mary Timony. (If not familiar with Mary Timony, maybe a French Dresden Dolls, but heavier and no cabaret.)

i think akitsa, this canadian ecperimental black metal band sings in french but as its black metal the lyrics are quite difficult to understand. Still everyone check out Akitsa. Awesome shit!!!!

Arcade Fire speak in French sometimes. Like Track 4 of Funeral.
