EIGHT of TWELVE
CRYSTAL FIGHTERS -
"CHAMPION SOUND"
Crystal Fighters are an international London-based
collective, fusing uplifting progressive dance music with
old world Basque folk music. The group draws inspiration
from the 80's Spanish / Basque "anti-todo"
("anti-everything") youth movement, taking their name from
an unfinished opera written by singer Laure's deceased
grandfather during his final months of insanity. The group
has worked to expand upon the wild spirit of these
writings, releasing their debut Star Of Love
(acronym for SOL, Spanish for "sun"). This is a stand out
album that continues to surprise with its inventiveness and
wonderfully chaotic energy.
Be sure to catch Crystal Fighters live at Point Ephémère in
Paris on 19 February. Not to be missed.
