I understand that the Correspondents are to close the show for a couple of one day festivals in Galway and Huddersfield, arranged by folk-pop outfit Mumford and Sons. This will be quite an unusual gig for Mr Bruce and Mr. Chuckles I should expect - I wonder what the crowd will make of them. Still, is should bring electro-swing to some new ears. More details can be found at the event's website:
This was shared on Facebook last night by White Mink and I absolutely love it. Not only is it a fabulous new song from Caravan Palace that I have not heard before, but the dancing is so much fun - a great little routine, with a fantastic flourish at the end - very impressive to pull something like that off, and to sing immediately after such an energetic performance. The very same post seems to suggest that they might come to the UK quite soon... exciting stuff... check this one out too... looks like a great gig!
