Concert de Soul/Rock : The Buttshakers

For the past 10 years, the Lyon-based band, led by American singer Ciara Thompson, have been propelling their abrupt, incendiary funk across European stages. For their new album, Sweet Rewards, the band have signed to Underdog Records, adding gospel choirs, brass, strings, psychedelic keyboard strings and slide guitar to their furious cocktail of old-school soul, garage rock and edgy funk.

With this pure energy, The Buttshakers are now following in the tradition of deep, militant soul, as exemplified by the track In The City and its video.
Their latest album, Arcadia, tackles the conscious and political side of soul, in the tradition of Gil Scott-Heron and Marvin Gaye.

Press:
"The stage at the Transbordeur is still steaming from the Buttshakers' performance".
RADIO NOVA

"The soul/funk combo from Lyon, still led by the incredible singer Ciara Thompson, are not only one of the best bands capable of taking up the torch from Sharon Jones and rivalling the Daptones, they are also musicians in search of meaning".
LE MONDE

"A rhythm'n'blues with a touch of garage, and a strong dose of sex appeal make their songs powerful hits, turning their shows into furious dancefloors".
