No idea about the Eiffel Tower! Anoushka Shankar would be phantastic! And first thought popped up about Paris was St. Germain. As I heard he have been one of the hightlights @ WOMADedlaide But love his CDs anyway, all of them! |

Sicgoe, I'm liking this St Germain chap, I'd be happy if it were he! I think I heard a track of his on a Songlines Cd a few months ago and liking it. Must go and try and find it. I also thought Caravan Place a possibility as they're based in Paris, I think. Wouldn't mind seeing them either, I missed them last ime they were at CP. Love it if Anoushka Shankar turns out to be the other clue - though I suspect she may be too big an attraction for the smaller stages (assuming that the big stage acts have all been annonunced already) |
