by Jason AnkenyAlthough based in Austin, Texas, the retro-swing outfit 8? Souvenirs drew much of their inspiration from European artists like Django Reinhardt, Serge Gainsbourg and Nino Rota; led by French expatriate singer/guitarist Olivier Giraud, the group was formed in 1988, and originally also comprised bassist Todd Wulfmeyer and drummer Adam Berlin. Classically trained pianist Glover Gill was the next to join; with the arrival of vocalist Juliana Sheffield, 8? Souvenirs' lineup was complete, and in 1995 they recorded their debut LP Happy Feet. Sauvonica, recorded with new vocalist Chrysta Bell, followed in 1998, and a year later the group returned with Twisted Desire.
