Les touches louches

Biography

Les Touches Louches is a quarter, active in Bologna since 2008. They search their own sounds in a mix of swing and folk music. The live concerts of Les Touches Louches create the atmosphere of a journey, with Claudio Cadei's lyrics, singer-songwriter and composer of the band. This journey includes music from many cultures, from klezmer to Balkan music, to Mediterranean sounds. This mix is very dynamic: there are very animated parts, in which the violin and the clarinet are balanced, like in Eastern European fanfares, and other moments that sound more like swing atmosphere. Les Touches Louches published two studio albums, "Il Grande Incanto" (2011) and "La Terra di Nessuno" (2016), both of them licensed in Creative Commons.
