Simone White & Jeanne Madic @ Oliver Peel session # 9
Somewhere in Paris june 27th 2009

Jeanne

Only 2 days after the last Oliver Peel session with Milk & Fruit Juice and Tada Tata, we all gathered to attend Jeanne and Simone White 's performances for the Oliver Peel session # 9.
First to play is Jeanne , she did several instrumental "tracks" on accordion then one with her emotional frail high voice. Note that her accordion sounds nothing like a normal accordion, just image you're alone in the country side lost in a blanket of fog and you'll get the idea of what it sounds like.
Complete setlist ( and PICS ) On Oliver Peel 's blog.

Simone White

Then Simone White took the stage , I've been to many Oliver Peel sessions with many folk artists most of'em were good but this time, I have to say that Simone 's songs and quality vocals are first league. Alela Diane should worry.
There's a maturity in her compositions and her voice is subtle.
We were lucky to be treated with quite a long set, playing songs from her records , she has a second album out shortly.
Check her Myspace to hear her songs , I've discover a gold nugget tonight.
We should hear about her very soon, Rolling stone Germany has nothing but praise for her cd.

Simone & Jeanne + The beautiful people

The Fleshtones @ Nouveau Casino Paris June 26th 2009

Fleshtones @ Nouveau Casino
Paris June 26th 2009

After two sold-out show at the Mécanique Ondulatoire in January of this year ( Show 1 , Show 2 Click on links for Pics & Reviews ) which were fantastic.
The Fleshtones are playing tonight @ the Nouveau Casino, unfortunately we had to wait a couple of friends so we couldn't see support band Kool Clebs.

Fleshtones with their Psyche-surf-garage are burning down the house once again.
The singer's mad , dancing , jumping, screaming and visiting the audience down in the pit.

Lots of fuzz guitar , grooving bass and kicking ass drums.
Songs are played one after another no time to hang around.
As you can see on the pictures the whole band came many times down in the pit to play their songs in front of their fans.
They invited on stage a couple of people including a young girl who 'played ' bass.

The setlist above is inaccurate as they've changed it and added a few songs.
Great set once again , these guys are having fun entertaining us and so we had.

Tada Tata + Milk & fruit juice @ Oliver Peel session # 8 Paris june 25th 2009

Tada Tata + Milk & Fruit juice @ Oliver Peel session # 8
Somewhere near the Eiffel Tower June 25th 2009

The beautiful people & Milk ( or is he Fruit juice ? )

Oliver Peel & Cécile are welcoming us tonight for an unusual Thursday night-Oliver-Peel session.
Some very good home made pizzas , cupcakes ( home made by Mathilde ) and macarons plus lots of rosé but not only as ...
The first band on stage is French pop-folkies Milk & Fruit Juice ,once again it's hot as hell in here ( they're doing a competition with the Bataclan for the hottest club ) but we're lucky to be treated with some refreshing pop-folk mainly played on Ukulele with a little help from their friends on guitar, percussion and backing vocals.
Don't ask me who's Milk and who's Fruit Juice , I haven't figure it out yet.

The fruit-juices or the Milkies ?

This Oliver Peel session #8 started very late as the girls from Sweden Tada Tata were stuck in the traffic.
Tada Tàtà played around 11 PM.
Short but very cool set of Electro Pop Folk mostly played on guitar & Ukulele and Music toys with the help of an Ipod for some backgound music operated by the master himself : Oliver.
These funny little Swedish girls are doing fine with some very nice harmony vocals.
They will be playing the Music for Toys Festival on june 28th @ L' international.
