Info :
"We feel a real connection to Lounge on the Farm festival in Kent (UK). It was the first festival we'd ever filmed at during the first month of our existence last year and we think we've come a very long way since then. It was in July then that we returned and our session line-up gave us goosebumps. Jamie Woon was the first session to go live (click here to see them) and still to come are Marcus Foster, Leah Mason, Kyla la Grange, Melody Melodica and Me. Before that however, one of the most exciting artists to emerge over the past year is Michael Kiwanuka and we found a beautifully quiet blackberry field where he performed two tracks for us."

Info :
With Michael Kiwanuka, it's all about the voice. A voice that he describes as "hitting straight through to the core" with direct, emotional songs about love, yearning, comfort and belonging. It's a voice that built him a following via MySpace and small London gigs, and led Paul Butler from The Bees to invite him to the band's Isle of Wight studio to lay down these introductory tracks. Which makes it all the more strange, really, that what Kiwanuka originally set out to be was a session guitarist who maybe wrote the odd song for other people.

Now 23, growing up in North London Michael struggled at times to see where he fitted in. An avid England and Spurs fan, he found it hard to imagine a day when a name like Kiwanuka could sit comfortably on the back of a football shirt here. Nonetheless, when his parents took him and his brother back to the Uganda to visit family, he and his brother were immediately recognised as English tourists. Like most of his schoolmates, he liked bands like Nirvana and Blur, but it was only when he discovered that Jimi Hendrix was black that he was able to imagine himself picking up a guitar.

In his teens, two other icons helped him find his voice. A friend gave him a Bob Dylan box set, and Michael was bowled over by the power of a well-crafted song, delivered with just urgent vocals and an acoustic guitar. Later, he was playing the free CD that came with a music magazine and heard an out-take of 'Sitting on the Dock of the Bay' in which Otis Redding was talking to the studio engineer. It made the soul icon seem more human, more accessible, and though there were later to be other influences from Bill Withers and Terry Callier to John Martyn and Laura Marling, it was Dylan and Redding who laid the foundations for Michael's own rootsy, folk-inflected modern soul.

Info :
Michael Kiwanuka is tipped for big things this year. Having recently released his critically acclaimed EP "Tell Me A Tale" on Communion Records and a string of sold out shows and festival appearances, we were lucky to catch him when we did! With a soulful compilation of timeless songs, Michael's voice and presence defy his young age and you can be sure of the longevity of Michael's career ahead of him.

Matt was introduced to Michael by Paul Butler from The Bees earlier this year, as he supported them in London's Union Chapel. It's not often a support act fills the venue ahead of the headline act but Michael did just that. Paul produced the aforementioned EP and is now producing the eagerly anticipated debut album. So all thanks to Paul for making this session possible!!

Matt and Joe spent a gloriously sunny day in Camden and Regent's Park with Michael, capturing beautiful renditions of some of his favourite songs and talking about the promising future ahead of him. Michael liked the footage of every song so much you can be sure to see each one released through his online networks over the next year. We are honoured to call Michael a friend... there's nothing to not like about this guy! Michael will be playing London's Bush Hall on 21st September. If you've not yet had the opportunity to see him live, rectify this by getting your tickets at www.communionmusic.co.uk/live. Get involved. You won't be disappointed.

Black CowBoys - Trust (video)

Djouls — Thu, 06 Jan 2011 23:02:00 +0100

Black CowBoys

Black Cowboys : trois chanteurs-compositeurs qui explosent les barrières musicales et fabriquent une toute nouvelle et fascinante excitation musicale. Avec des influences flirtant de Van Morrison et Nick Drake à Parliament et Sly Stone, ils sillonnent depuis 6 mois les nuits parisiennes et alentours où ils sont maintenant bien repérés. Ils enregistrent leur premier album et gageons que vous serez d'accord à l'écoute de ce son ultra chaud: ce ne sera pas seul!
Free your mind, écoute le son des Black CowBoys!

Black CowBoys

Doctor L (Dublin – Ireland) : guitare, percussions, voix

Kiala Nzavotunga (Lagos – Nigeria) : guitare, voix
Des clubs enfumés et enflammés de Lagos aux quais de la Seine en passant par New York et Los Angeles, les souvenirs tenaces collent à la peau. Cette flamme entretenue et ravivée par Kiala, pionnier des Ghetto Blaster (1984 - 2006) et fidèle compagnon d'armes de Fela (1981 - 1983), avec lequel il "croisa le fer" à la guitare au sein des Fela & Africa 70, n'aura pas mis longtemps pour remettre le feu aux poudres. Kiala, le punch, le groove, l'insolente énergie... Le souffle ardent de l'afrobeat est toujours là, vivant et vibrant.

Allonymous (Chicago – USA) : voix
Groovy jusqu'au bout des gros orteils, Alan Conway de son vrai nom met son corps et sa voix au service de la mémoire de ses ancêtres afro-cubains et américains. On a déjà pu l'écouter aux côtés de Jimi Tenor, The Cinematic Orchestra, Cody Chesnutt ou Keziah Jones. Plus expressif qu'un toon de Tex Avery, plus sexuel que Marvin Gaye, plus charitable que l'Abbé Pierre, Allonymous le poète de Chicago va vous emmener loin, très loin.
