Jake Bugg @ Album de la Semaine, Canal+, Paris Nov 20 2013

see ya there for this tv show, one day before his show @ Olypia to play songs from the new album "Shangri La"

Setlist: 1) There's a beast 2) Strorm passes 3) Messed up kis 4) Pine Trees 5) Song about love 6) All your reasons 7) Scumville sunrise 8) What doesn't kill ya

Jake Bugg with a drummer and a bass player only playing his new song, a bit different than his first album, now there are some proper rock songs mixed with some acoustic stuff and his trademark Roy Orbison/ Johnny Cash stuff. The little fucker is talented, whatever style he's playing he's good.

Willis Earl Beal @ L'Album de la Semaine, Paris Oct 09 2013

Willis Earl Beal @ L'Album de la Semaine, Paris Oct 09 2013
Sometimes you go to a concert expecting a lot and you got, almost, nothing (Babyshambles) and sometimes you go to a concert expecting nothing and you got A LOT !
Tonight it's the latter.

Never heard anything about that guy, Willis Earl Beal, before except that Cat Power sung a song with him and that the guy was homeless at one moment in his life and Oh Yeah... that he was singing soul music.
Didn't know what to expect when 3 black guys ( on drums, bass &guitar/piano ) all dressed up in black and the singer wearing a mask , like Zorro and a fucking cape... What the Fuck !

Strange sound at first with some weird synthesizers and then he started singing, a fucking revelation, this guys has something in his voice and he's playing the part on stage.
Like a young Screaming Jay Hawkins  or a stripped down version of Tom Waits: a big voice with that something that makes the difference.
The music, stripped down as well:in fact only one song can be really considered "soul" all the other songs are swimming in a sea of  lo-fi- blues and soul with just what is needed: a bit of drums a bit of bass and some piano or guitar.

Had a revelation tonight, it's called Willis Earl Beal.

Anna Calvi is also doing a radio show "Live me do" on France Inter tonight

Babyshambles @ Zénith, Paris Oct 03 2013

Babyshambles @ Zénith, Paris Oct 03 2013
After playing a 30 min show, the first one in many years @ République in Paris in July, BABYSHAMBLES  are back in Paris for a proper show @ Zénith.
It's a small Zénith and it's far from being full, We'd rather not mention the French band that we saw opening just before, I guess I'm too old for that crap.

Long intermission, too long but beautiful backdrop ( It's the artwork for the new album). The more we listen to the new album , the more we like it. Maybe not as rock as the previous one with a bit of reggae, a bit of cabaret, some slower songs... but great songs ( Fireman, Nothing comes..., Maybelline...)
Straight from the beginning we can notice that Peter is wasted ( as usual) and not respecting the original setlist as they're starting the gig with a kick ass version of "Pipedown, then "Delivery" and new single "Nothing comes..." Great start as we have 3 great songs.
Unfortunately it won't last long, there are always talks between songs to see what's next and Peter seems to do what he pleases with the band trying to follow him.
Sometimes it's sounding more like a public rehearsals than a proper concert.
Then we have an acoustic part with Peter alone on stage, I guess I was attending a Babyshambles' gig ?! 
We even have one of the dancing girl singing one song with him ! What the Fuck !!!
Is it Peter & Co or Babyshambles ?
After attending their comeback show @ Republique, where the band was really tight I was expecting a better gig than this one, Hoped the band would be tighter, I guess we can put the blame on Peter's attitude.Too bad.
Did we really need to hear "La Marseillaise" or "Les Copains d'abord"?
A good 90 min show but a bit disappointed.

Anna Calvi @ Gaité Lyrique, Paris Sept 26 2013

Anna Calvi @ Gaité Lyrique, Paris Sept 26 2013

Second night in a row with Anna Calvi, we're lucky bastards.
Yesterday she played Canal+ tv show l'Album de la Semaine for a short 7 songs set, she seemed a bit nervous playing the new ones.
Tonight even though the concert is broadcasted live on Arte Web live, she seemed more relaxed.
Once again we the primeur of hearing the new songs some are already classics "sing to me" and some we just can get it "Piece by Piece".
Once again she doesn't talk that much to the audience, just a few "thank yous" but the music speaks for itself: classy and bewitching.
We would have like her to play a bit longer as she left the stage after just 60 min to play two ore songs.
Better than yesterday, looking forward seeing her once again next week for a radio show this time
see ya
