The delightful French singer-songwriter, musician and animator Fránçois & The Atlas Mountains brings his collection of Gallic chamber-pop and chanson to the UK, performing songs from his latest album E Volo Love.
Recently signed to Domino Records, Fránçois’ playful vocals croon above electronic beats, African rhythms, rich piano chords, shimmering electric guitars and an all-female polyphonic vocal group to create a colourful sound-world.
Support comes from Joel Nicholson, aka Butcher The Bar. Signed to Morr Music (Múm, Amiina, The Go Find, Telekinesis) Joel makes subtle pop songs that are somewhat reminiscent of label-mates Seabear, but also of indie-pop greats such as The Lucksmiths. His second album, For Each a Future Tethered, was released in June 2011, and the band recently toured with Death Cab For Cutie.
