Ricochet by Club Débris
Club Débris formed as a celebration of the close ties between the music that the band members grew up with and the joyous Québécois tunes that they’d gravitated towards over the years, especially through playing together in the vibrant London session scene.
-
Ricochet brings together a handful of the brightest tunes that bounce back and forth across the Atlantic, and that the band couldn’t resist bringing to a wider audience.
-
Special credit is due to the musicians involved in the Vices et Versa session in Montreal, who - both in person, and through their excellent recording Les Sessions du Vices et Versa - provided the source for a number of tunes on the album.
