We say
Caravan Palace are pioneers of the electro swing movement, an underground scene that is rapidly bubbling over into the main stream. Clash is a perfect example of this, making for a great first single over here and showing signs that the band could break in the UK. They've already released one album in France which went platinum, establishing the Parisian seven-piece as a massive breakthrough band out there, with over 165k Likes on Facebook and millions of YouTube views. They headlined the main stage at four festivals this summer, playing to sold out/capacity crowds at Eurocultured, Larmer Tree Festival, Secret Garden Party, Boom Town Fair. Touring will follow in the UK in November with London's Koko show on the verge of selling out and the band playing 500-1500 cap venues regionally. There has been a fantastic reaction online and press, with MTV, Don't Panic, Clash, Fault, NME.com, Tatler and Virgin all featuring the band. This is only the start in the UK but with the band syndicated on the Bauer Radio In Demand UK 'ones to watch' things are shaping up very well indeed. The album is looking to be released November 2012 with management currently looking at license opportunities. Video.London Gig: November 21, KOKO NW1
