Parisian mischievousness

I know my brother will be green with envy after reading this post. He once introduced me to this electro-swing band, and now I am totally in love with them: Caravan Palace. The parisian group is playing in Bristol on Friday and I am proud to say that right now, I am holding my very own ticket.

They released two studio albums. The first one in 2008 called Caravan Palace and the second one Panic in 2012. The band has been playing electro-swing gypsy jazz based music since 2005. At the outset, I've heard that the band composed a soundtracks to silent pornographic films. The band became popular on the MySpace after releasing a number of demos and singles. They found a niche in some European album charts with their first studio album and remained on the French albums chart for 68 consecutive weeks.

This event is part of the VegFest happening this weekend and the concert in the Amphitheatre (BS1 5LL) does look very promising. There are still some tickets left which you can buy here (£17.85 including all fees). If you haven't heard the band before, I suggest you go on Youtube and check it out. They are simply amazing! I just hope their live performance is at least as good as the recorded one... I will let you know! :)
