Live

Description

After more than a quarter of a century of existence, and therefore of being on stage, Babylon Circus and their audience are finally reunited on a new album recorded during their anniversary tour. Disrupted by the global pandemic, the 25th anniversary tour was finally able to take place, and the joy of being reunited was all the greater. For this tribe from Lyon, playing has always been a catalyst, the best way to learn and to move from festive impulses to something more powerful, from a great freedom of action that is sometimes a little chaotic to a more poetic direction. Cohesion can only be learned with the patina of time; 25 years was a good age to enter adulthood, or, as the saying goes, maturity. Everyone will hear what they like in it, from La Mano Negra to Les Négresses Vertes, via Shaka Ponk or even Louise Attaque on the French side, but that would be too reductive. The Clash or Bob Marley are also part of it. But above all, it is a Best of Live, acclaimed by the public, bringing together both the band’s classics and tracks recorded on their most recent albums, as well as 4 unreleased tracks played during this tour. Always with a strong identity, that of Babylon Circus, which manages to embrace a sense of unity within variety and an irrepressible desire to say what haunts them and go sing it on stages around the world.
