Here we go, let's take the Caravan for another tour. Same Palace, with a brand new customized flavor. Caravan Palace are the surprise breakout band of the last decade, the apostles of Electro Swing and precursors of a laidback yet terribly upbeat trend.
Their strength lies in their common passion for electronic music. Charles, Arnaud and Hughes, the initial trio, dig swing, especially gypsy jazz, and try their hands at the genre's traditional instruments: guitar, double bass and violin. That's where this peculiar mixture of classical Django and new trendy electro comes from. And it's far better than those retro futuristic sounds? because it swings. A few myspace posts later and they have almost doubled in size, enrolling Chapi and the boisterous Colotis in the band.
