  #  The  Buttshakers   ( USA/FR )    

 

 

Their name hardly promises restraint, and standing still is definitely not an option with The Buttshakers. Untamable singer Ciara Thompson makes sure of that. Born in Saint Louis, Missouri, she was raised on gospel, jazz and blues. Together with her formidable French band, she turns that musical baggage into uncut pre-Motown soul and driving funk, with a sly wink to sixties garage. Thompson impresses with soulful wails, expertly driven by a grooving rhythm section, a ripping trombone and a sultry baritone sax. That earned them a reputation as a live act you simply have to see. So go ahead and loosen those hips.
