We Were Evergreen are a French alternative indie-electro-pop trio. The band formed in Paris in 2008 but have been based in London, UK, since 2011. They've been described as "shape-shifting pop blend[ing] folk melodies, electro beats and exotic rhythms". Their debut album, Towards, was released on May 5, 2014.

The band was formed in 2008 in Paris by then-literature-students Michael Liot (vocals, strummed instruments) and Fabienne Débarre (vocals, keyboards, xylophone). They were very quickly joined by William Serfass (vocals, percussions, bass, electric guitar). After releasing two self-produced EPs (We Were Evergreen, Flings) in France, they moved to London where they released a third EP, Leeway. Since then, they have toured with the likes of Metronomy, Goldfrapp, Slow Club, King Charles, Michael Kiwanuka and Villagers. 2014 saw them play at Glastonbury, Reading, Leeds and Lovebox, among other festivals, as well as Solidays in France and Parkpop in the Netherlands.

We Were Evergreen wrote and recorded the soundtrack to 2013 French film Fonzy. The Michael Creange and WEKEED remix of their song "Baby Blue" was featured in Kim Chapiron's film La Crème de la Crème as well as in the launch video for the Nokia Lumia 625.

Towards was released on May 5, 2014 by Island Records in the UK and Because Music in France, Belgium and Switzerland. It was recorded and mixed in Brixton's Iguana Studios, with Charlie Andrew (producer of Alt-J, Sivu and Marika Hackman).
