Vic Galloway sits in with Les Bof! In Session

If you don't know the band, this is what they say about themselves - 60s French yé-yé garage, served up with panache by venerable Scottish fuzz beat Rock n’ Roll emissaries.

Joining Vic live in the studio tonight Scottish ensemble Les Bof!

If you don't know the band, this is what they say about themselves - 60s French yé-yé garage, served up with panache by venerable Scottish fuzz beat Rock n’ Roll
emissaries.

To reflect this, the band's new album is called Voila!

The band by the band - Ross, the drummer who draws together the sophistication of the Highlands, with a gentle, sweet Borders nuttiness. Angus – a guitarist whose robustly flavoured sound is complemented by a smooth dry finish. Laurent – the chanter exceptional, both light and fruity with a suggestion of lime and a slight woodiness. And finally, Colin – the bass player whose deep notes, triple distilled, bring waves of complexity, often resulting in heartburn.

Intriguing - this is going to be fun.
