Concert : Dartford station

At the crossroads of English pop and American folk, Dartford Station invites us into their home with a debut album that synthesizes their pop and rock influences. Instead of the classic guitar/bass/drums, the trio swap drums and bass for a percussive double bass, and don't hesitate to draw out the banjo if need be. The bouncy, sparkling songs alternate with those that open up the wide open spaces of America.

Manu, on acoustic guitar and vocals, a great scholar of Swinging London and English pop from the 60s and 70s, offers timeless compositions ranging from intimate ballads to lively pop rich in harmonies.

Guillaume, on electric guitar and vocals, arranger and tinkerer, doesn't hesitate to use his overdrive, fuzz or wah-wah pedal to spice up the melodies with a sharp telecaster.
