Soon playing at… the Wolf’ Hole?
Indeed, we’ll play in a place called Le Trou Au Loup, a tiny small place with nice ambiance, wine and food… and well, I felt inspired by the place name!
The music lyrics are traditional (again!), the meaning is unclear, researchers think they might relate to songs used by druids during their training to remember about long lists of items (like plants, trees, places, magical days…). It’s only a wee piece of the song, we’d like to bring together the full song, so far… it’s been a challenge!
§ Simone
Some work in progress…
No comment at the moment – unless it would somehow sound familiar? 😉
The Road to Albion, episode 4 & a tribute to Oasis
It’s no secret that we both love British Pop! Wonderwall from Oasis is among this sound we love.
We’ve finished packing, we’re leaving Greece today, to get to Belgium on Friday right on time for our concert on Saturday night, and then head to Dunkerque and board to UK.
If you want to stay tuned, check out http://facebook.com/astrakanproject which is the easiest place for us to share while on the road – and yes, of course, be prepared for loads of road-trip videos & pictures!

The Road to Albion, episode 3
We’re glad we keep on investigating for shows in the UK… so far our contacts there have really been friendly and creative and respectful. And believe it or not Yann is almost ready to give up on coffee – well, for the week we’ll be there!
The Road to Albion, episode 2
Who would say being a musician isn’t a job? 😉 Yes, we’re still getting ready to go to the UK (concerts on the 13-14th of June)
First episode was >here<
The Road to Albion, episode 1
