Lavomatik Session - The Redwalls - You Can't Forget Yourself

Le neveu de Julian Casablancas (chanteur des Strokes) jouait au tracteur dans le même bac à sable que le petit fils caché de John Lennon.

Lorsqu'ils atteignirent l'âge de 16 ans ils décidèrent de monter The Redwalls avec Brandon Watts, petit fils de Charlie Watts, qui venait de déménager à Chicago et de débarquer dans leur lycée.

Chacun ramena les instruments de famille et les bloc-notes de studio laissés par leurs aïeux aux caves et aux greniers.

Quelques albums, tournées américaines et Letterman Shows plus tard voici le résultat en acoustique au Lavomatik.

-------------------------------------------

Imagine a band where Julian Casablancas' nephew would sing with John Lennon's grand son mixing The Rolling Stones' and Elvis Costello's styles... This is exactly what The Redwalls are: an incredible concentrate of talent and strong references.

They asked which song I wanted them to play. I answered I wanted them to play the song they'd play on a Sunday Morning 2PM sitting relax in a laundromat waiting for laundry to end. That's when they decided to play "You Cant Forget Yourself".

I also said that I liked their ClassicRock sound and that I had loved "Dont You Want To Come Out" the night before at "La Maroquinerie". They answered they had never played it acoustic but they could try it. And that is the bonus song.

Enjoy, pure acoustic rock live from the Laundromat!

Bises!
Mathieu
