Kid Congo & The Pink Monkey Birds + Western Mécanique
Led by the iconic Kid Congo Powers, former guitarist of The Cramps, The Gun Club, and Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Kid Congo & The Pink Monkey Birds is a band embodying the underground and rebellious spirit of rock since the mid-2000s. Blending punk, garage, psychedelia and 'chicano' rock touches, their music is raw, hypnotic, and flamboyant. Since their first album Dracula Boots (2009), the band has developed a recognizable sound: fuzz, hypnotic groove, and atmospheres that are both dark and festive. Their latest record, That Delicious Vice (2024), recorded as a trio, illustrates this mix of raw power and intimacy, with highlights like "Wicked World" in collaboration with L.A. punk legend Alice Bag. On stage, the band offers a unique experience, between trance and frenzy, celebrating alternative rock culture and the outsider aesthetic dear to Kid Congo Powers. True to their roots, the band keeps surprising and captivating a passionate audience.
Western Mécanique: Formed in early 2023 in Metz, Western Mécanique offers a mechanical-punk-soul rock influenced by bands such as Clash and Redskins.
