Le Pied de la Pompe are two escapees from the mixed-rock band L'Dawa, who have converted to swinging chanson. After touring the bars of Brittany, the Malouin duo hit the record stores in 2008 with On Fait C'qu'on Peut, followed by Ici Ou Là, released in 2010 with some success. What followed was more complicated, with albums Un Soir au Thy'roir (2011) and Légendaire (2013) struggling to broaden their fan base. Since 2012, Le Pied de la Pompe has been part of the alternative supergroup Collectif 13.
