Oh, we’ve been gone for a while, haven’t we? We’ve got a tiny little tan to prove it but mostly, we’ve been indoors listening to records and baking cupcakes. This is what happens when one gets old. Overcrowded beaches no longer do it.
We’ve decided to take a tiny break from the lovely streets of Brooklyn to concentrate on what we see from our bedroom windows – Paris and its Eiffel Tower, Paris and its croissants, Paris and its not-so-emerging music scene. Trying to grow up next to London is bound to create some long-lasting childhood trauma, but thankfully Paris has been blessed with caring godmothers who touched its head with their sparkly wands and made bands happen. We’ve talked to Nico Prat, a resident DJ, a VoxPop journalist and Call Me Señor’s manager, to discuss the how’s, when’s, why’s and where’s Paris happened, happens, and is likely to happen in the near future. Little did we know we would end up with such knowledge.
Upcoming are Janelle Monaé, Plan B, The Avett Brothers, The Black Keys, and tour schedules for the fall… do you need help with that lotion?
