Black Metal legend Abbath, formerly of Immortal, is embarking on a European tour, including three French dates promoted by our friends Garmonbozia. Along with Thrash Metal project Hellripper and Black n' Roll combo Toxic Holocaust, Abbath with plunder and pillage the three French cities, pummeling the audiences into submission with the devastating sounds of old-school Black Metal.
A little over a year since his last sold-out date in the French capital, Swedish singer/songwriter Eagle-Eye Cherry is back in Paris, in the considerably bigger La Cigale. You can get tickets HERE or at the link below.
More sonic assault on the senses with the return of Suffocation, a year and a half after their last Paris show. They are promoting Hymns for the Apocrypha, their first album with new vocalist Ricky Myers, who you might know from being the drummer in Californian Death Metal lifers Disgorged. Don't expect acoustic ballads or accordion-driven polka/jazz fusion: this is straight-up Death Metal, unapologetically brutal and uncompromising.
Tommy Emmanuel might be the finest guitarist on the circuit; he certainly has no rival on the acoustic guitar. But beyond his jaw-dropping technique, the clever re-arrangement of classic tunes, his own exquisite compositions, the most striking thing about him is his absolute musicality. It's never about flash, but it's about the emotions that come from these particular songs. What Jeff Beck was to the electric guitar, the Australian is to the acoustic. There are still a few tickets left HERE. Don't miss your chance to see a master at work.
Charles Ray "Gypsy" Mitchell's name appeared on dozens of albums by legendary soul and gospel artists, including long-standing Texan funk band The Relatives. He'll be bringing the sweaty, soapy funk of his first solo album Movin' (Down The Highway) to the small Parisian club La Maroquinerie on January 31st. Don't miss it!
German-based imprint Run Records has been preaching the Blues for three decades and it's time to celebrate with the label's most famous ambassador Bernard Allison and two up-and-coming future twelve-bar stars Ally Venable and Katie Henry.
Leyla McCalla and Rhiannon Giddens @ Maison des Arts (Créteil) - February 10, 2024
Sons d'Hiver has always had a demanding but satisfying line-up, and this year's curators have decided to end the festival with an exquisite evening of "folk" music with two former members of the Carolina Chocolate Drops: Leyla McCalla and Rhiannon Giddens, eminent musicians and musicologists who have built careers out of building bridges between continents, cultures and musical idioms. Simply unmissable.
