SKIP JENSEN
Skip Jensen is a well respected contributer to the rockin' garage scene in Montreal. In 2001 while he was still releasing records with more established bands, he decided to start recording himself more seriously. And so, Skip Jensen was born... With a paint-stick taped to one foot, a tambourine to the other and a harmonica and guitar slung around his neck he proceeded to bash out and record some of the most original sounding tunes to be heard in a dog's age. Heavily influenced by the likes of Jesse Mae Hemphill, Doctor Ross and even Hasil Adkins the songs are a mish-mash of blues, punk, rockabilly, folk, bluegrass and rock n' roll. www.sonicdirt.co.uk/skipjensen

ALLAN WURTELE
Discover the sympathetic universe, poetry and music of this singer-songwriter. With fragments of folk, blues and chanson française lifted by some psychedelic ballads, you will travel through pleasant environments of picturesque and whimsical inspirations where you will find little stories strewn with frugality or impregnated with the imaginary. Intimacy, reflection, joy, nonchalance, wisdom, daydreams; all that is likely to be served to you this evening. www.myspace.com/allanwurtele

ROCKY CHOUINARD
Free and dynamic artist with a
great repertory, Rocky goes from bar singer to 50s rock n' roll, from 80s
pop to la chanson française, from
top 50 hits to the jazz of the 40s. Rocky really has a style of his
own and a sound that emanates from a truly original savoir faire.
Guitarist and singer songwriter, it's with energy and emotion that he
expresses himself on guitar, blending rock, flamenco, swing, jazz and even
classical. He will be performing in duo with Prasun Lala.

DE BABZ
«De Babz, friendly Babou,
was born in the depths of a brown hole! He licks his large rough hairs
constantly and particularly likes the armpits of mature guenons. We
don’t know why, but since being formed, he doesn’t stop sordidly crying:
Ou...Ou... Hop... Hop, Ouuu Hoooop!!! Babi, Babibou, Babibabibazzzzzzz!!!
He enters instead long folkloric trances and finally sees the light»
