THE CONCERTS OF THE SHELL FESTIVAL
Breaky Boxes
Irish and American folk
Inspired by Irish and American Folk culture, the band delivers a positive and enthusiastic message. By mixing acoustic and traditional instruments, such as the acoustic guitar, the mandolin or the banjo, with a keyboard and pop vocal melodies, they offer original and unique compositions. Warmth, authenticity and closeness will be at the rendez-vous.
Saturday, on the Town Hall stage at 11:30 a.m. and 5 p.m., and at the casino at 2 p.m.
The Loire Valley Calypsos
inspired by music from the English-speaking Caribbean of the 40s-50s-60s
Composed of four musicians, the group travels from island to island to revisit calypso, the popular music of the English-speaking Caribbean of the 50s and 60s, adding all the influences of world music. The acoustic instruments are mixed with more electric arrangements, sometimes even psychedelic. The original spirit of the group, vintage, dancing, sunny, festive, funny, offers a tropicadelic music which sails until the trance.
Sunday, on the stage of the town hall at 11:30 am and at the casino at 3:30 pm
Kat Mataf
festive folk rock songs
Five musicians, five ocean scummers...
With Kat Mataf, go on an adventure... from the coasts of Galicia to the lands of Ireland, let yourself be carried away by the magic of a frenzied jig... These Normans tell us stories "of the sea, of picturesque characters, slices of life" through their songs: a subtle mixture of rock and tradition. A festive show, an invitation to dance and travel.
Sunday, on the stage of the town hall at 3:15 pm and at the casino at 11 am and 5 pm
Marauders
guitar-voice duet of covers
Marauders is an acoustic duo with a folk/rock/blues universe, with a repertoire composed of numerous covers of all styles and eras and their own compositions. Their particularity lies in the arrangement of the covered songs, and in the use of a looper, which allows to record live several guitar tracks and thus enrich the musical accompaniment.
Marauders is the meeting of two universes that complement and enrich each other to share with you the passion that brings them together: music.
Saturday, on the stage of the town hall at 3pm and at the casino at 11:30am
