Topette’s ‘Bourdon’ is another album of delectably intoxicating grooves. The special blend of instrumental timbres, which when joyously carried aloft in the signature vigorously driven yet expertly controlled playing style, makes for a band sound that is literally unique.

Anglo-French band Topette!! featuring Barnaby Stradling, Andy Cutting, Julien Cartonnet, James Delarre and Tania Buisse head out on tour this month before recording a new album. Watch their new video for a set of French polkas.

Topette!!’s debut album C’est Le Pompon is one that should be on all your radars. It’s all here, beautifully whipped up and raring to go – a wonderful melange of French, English, and all points East, West, North and South.

Anglo-French acoustic dance combo Topette!! are on tour through December (ft. Andy Cutting, James Delarre, Julien Cartonnet, Tania Buisse, and Barnaby Stradling), one band you know you can keep warm to no matter how cold the venue…you just dance! Plus they are recording an album…all fantastic news!

Following on from his third album, Low Culture, Jim Moray has delivered another outstanding work which flawlessly mixes traditional song with modern sensibilities and musical arrangements. In an entirely characteristically brave move Moray has taken the decision to pre-release In Modern History to a wide audience as a free 8 track CD through Songlines Magazine in April 2010, the full 10 track CD is realised in June.
