Caravan Palace

I discovered this artist the other day, and it's quite interesting, but epic at the same time. It's a genre that I'd never even heard of called "Electro-Swing".

I like this type of music alot ^^

I went on Youtube and searched some more of their music

That's because they're based in Paris. xD All of their lyrics are in English though.

I almost expected you to be like "Omg, swing!" but then I remembered Swing is from the 30's-40's and that you weren't THAT old. And then I felt stupid.

Also, a bit of background:

Code:

The first meeting of the band members came in 2005 when Vial, Payen and Delaporte were hired by a film production company to provide a soundtrack to silent pornographic films.[2][4] The band formed as a three-piece soon after, although it was a year before they met music producer Loïc Barrouk, who took an interest in the project and booked the band a recording studio and a series of gigs. More performers were required for the live concerts and the other three current band members were found after searching on MySpace.[2]

The band became popular on the internet after releasing a number of demos and promo singles. From 2006 to 2007 they spent a year touring around France, and their first festival appearance came at the Django Reinhardt Jazz Festival in 2007.[2] Following this emergence, the group were signed by the Paris-based Wagram Music record label. They spent the next year recording material for their début studio album.

On 20 October 2008 the self-titled Caravan Palace was released, preceded by the single "Jolie Coquine".[1] The album received praise for its traditional jazz inclinations,[1] and placed in a number of European album charts. In Switzerland, the album reached #72 and in Belgium it achieved a position of #42. The album performed best in the band's native France where it attained a peak position of #11 in August 2009, and remained on the French albums chart for 68 consecutive weeks.[5] The band released their second official single, "Suzy", on 24 February 2009.[6]

On 3 October 2011, the band released an EP titled 'Clash', featuring two new songs and four remixes of them. On 5 March 2012, they released a new studio album titled 'Panic'.
