THE NUNS
https://itsnuntime.wordpress.com
“All female Monks tribute band Ye Nuns are fantastic. Way better than any obsolescent nu-garage rock revolution group I’ve ever seen.” The Quietus

On paper, Ye Nuns are a tribute band. An all-girl celebration of The Monks, proto-krautrock garage punkers formed by a gang of American GIs stationed in Germany who legendarily sported tonsures and nooses on stage. But Ye Nuns are more than a tribute band.

Formed by seven London ladies in 2006, Ye Nuns send witchy, six-part harmonies crashing over scratchy guitars, layer on evil fuzz bass and add pounding drums. Lead vocals screech and soar. Electric banjo hacks relentlessly. Vintage keyboard sounds stab. Yet it’s still music that puts grins on faces and gets feet moving.

In an arena where youth is often prized above talent, a band of seven women north of 40 is virtually unprecedented. Their experience and assured poise shines through on stage. There’s no need for faux-sexy posing or cute apologetic stylings. Members’ other bands include Curve, Mambo Taxi, Thee Headcoatees, Gay Dad, The A-Lines, Echobelly, Joanne Joanne, The Phantom Pregnancies and The Priscillas to name about one tenth.

Debut album Nun More Black grinds, grooves and assaults. Recorded in two days flat on old-fashioned tape at Gizzard studios, there are proper tunes, moments of astonishing avant-garde sonic assault and lashings of righteous ire. Which you can dance to. Again, Ye Nuns are more than a tribute band.

THE MISSING SOULS (France)

(Translated by google, sorry for incomprehension but you get the vibe!)
A group of 60's Beat / Rhythm 'N' Blues formed by members of the Lyon scene (The Cavemen V / X-Ray Vision).
Bass and vocals, Zaza Sharps: happy hours during his french-bristolienne, she loves dancing like a mad on the Northern Soul and rob stores. Her favorite: 45tours eat and do acrobatics on the dance floor.
A guitar and vocals, Little Big Caveman: nice boy despite his appearances, he loves to indulge in crazy dances the garage-soul, play the harmonica with the nose and rob stores. His favorite: spend hours listening Standells with her cat.
Partly on the organ / bass and vocals, Ricky Bilbao: it goes perfectly for a mad professor in the surf group X-Ray Vision with its organ, theremin and his other gadgets, but what he prefers in the Missing Souls, is a sexy wiggle not recalling the true values of African American showmen; it also does well alone at home stupidly or with his partner on vinyl 50's R & B. His guilty pleasure: Doo-Wop the.
At the drums and vocals, Lester Mizzi: Juvenile veteran group and handsome embodying wisdom rock years' n roll consumed full pot, it takes the machine with a groovy and delicate style worthy drummers 60's, always bananas lips. His guilty pleasure: "Who'll Be The Next In Line" Kinks.
