Info
Propelled by the voice and presence of Ciara Thompson, The Buttshakers, a soul band from Lyon, revive the legacy of the 1960s and 70s with an unfailing effectiveness. After more than ten years on the road, their third album leans toward a more intimate blues without letting go of the groove or the truth of live performance. Tense rhythms, crisp melodic lines and a vocal flow that gets straight to the point: direct soul, conceived for the stage. See them on April 10, 2026 at Les Abattoirs Bourgoin-Jallieu for a meeting between tradition and contemporary songwriting.
A group emerging from Les Abattoirs’ support program, The Town come from Chambéry with a sound nourished by the Minneapolis Sound. Their funk brushes against rock and lays down rhythms made for dancing, without nostalgia. Clean structures, steady pulses and clear choruses frame a candid, no-nonsense set. The Town share the bill with The Buttshakers and extend the evening with a tight groove, tailored to the venue that has supported them.
