Folk Maximaliste (Epic acoustics with a tropical twist)
"Pourquoi sommes nous si sombres", fait semblant de s'interroger cette chanson de "folk maximaliste". Eh bien peut-être parce qu'elle a trop écouté le grand Townes Van Zandt, Bonnie Prince Billy ou Lou Reed. Ces mentors ont certes donné aux Français un goût du noir mais aussi un penchant impressionnant pour des arrangements hautains, risqués.

About us :
We met in 2008, two bearded drunks at a birthday party, and began improvising strange, atmospheric versions of Townes Van Zandt songs minutes only later. Foxtrot Empire, apart from being the worst band name you've probably heard in a while, is our project, and we are now working on our debut album, taking the occasional break to shamelessly play extremely bad music on our cheap plastic phonograph. We hope our music will make you twirl.
We are currently looking for a suitable home for our music. Any label interested is very welcome to contact us at foxtrotempiremusic@gmail.com
