The Soap Girls
City Winery Boston presents The Soap Girls with Happy Little Clouds live on June 23rd at 7:00pm
The SoapGirls are a French-born, South African-raised alternative rock duo consisting of sisters Noemie "Mie" Debray (guitar, vocals) and Camille "Mille" Debray (bass, vocals). Distinguished by their "Revolt Rock" sound and a strictly independent "DIY" ethos, the sisters are the sole architects of their career—writing, arranging, and producing 100% of their musical catalogue, management, and visual identity themselves.
Early Career and Autonomy
The duo first gained public attention as child street performers in Cape Town, singing and selling handmade soap to benefit local hospitals—an origin that provided both their name and their reputation for social action. Their international breakthrough occurred in 2009 with the song "Boys Boys Boys," which featured on a Japanese compilation disc and sparked global interest. This momentum led to a major-label contract with Universal Music South Africa and high-profile television appearances, including performing as guest artists on Idols SA (Top 10).
Following the success of their Number 1 debut album Xperience (2011) and four Top 5 singles, the sisters made the pivotal decision to leave the major-label system to reclaim their creative voice. Since then, they have operated entirely independently, rejecting outside writers and producers to maintain an unfiltered artistic vision.
Career Milestones and Global Reach
The SoapGirls have built a global empire from the ground up, known for an exhausting touring schedule that often exceeds 100 dates per year.
Media Impact: The band has reached a global media audience of over 200 million. They have been featured in Rolling Stone Magazine, Bass Magazine, Classic Rock, Guitar World, Vive Le Rock, and Louder Than War.
Television & Broadcasting: In addition to their early Idols appearance, they have been featured on Camden Live TV and numerous television programs across the UK and South Africa. Their music is a staple on BBC Radio, Planet Rock, and RTE.
Stage Highlights: They have headlined world-class venues including Womb (Tokyo), Melkweg (Amsterdam), and Camden Assembly (London). In 2025, they headlined the Motoblot Festival in Chicago and toured as the primary support for Wednesday 13.
The Rebel DNA Era: In 2026, the duo launched the Rebel DNA album cycle, written and produced entirely by the sisters, accompanied by an extensive world tour across the UK, Europe, Japan, and the United States.
