Déportivo is a French rock band from Bois-d'Arcy, Yvelines, a suburb of Paris.
About the band
There are three members in the band: Jérôme Coudanne – guitar, vocals (songwriter) Richard Magnac – bass Julien Bonnet – drums The trio mainly composes songs in French, though it has written several in English as well. Personal topics dominate.
The group's first album, Parmi eux, was released in 2004 and sold about 60,000 copies. The second one, eponymously titled but with an unaccented E instead of É, came out in 2007.
There is no word déportivo in French; the name of the band most likely comes from the Spanish deportivo (a reference to the same-named football club is possible).
