Zoot Woman, a project of producer and remixer Stuart Price, aka Jacques Lu Cont, Thin White Duke, etc., is one of those bands that have turned electronic music into something special (again). With their mix of pop melodies and eighties-style electro beats, Zoot Woman have built their own sound which is recognizable among thousands! This concert will certainly have some surprises in store…

There’s no way of talking about Zoot Woman without mentioning the career of Stuart Price. During the nineties, he attracted attention with Les Rythmes Digitales, a project somewhere between synthie pop and trip hop. A little later, he formed Zoot Woman, his own electro band in which he plays the bass. The first album, “Living in a magazine”, was released in 2001.

Price now became the number one ally for different renowned artists such as Madonna (for whom he produced the album “Confessions on the dance floor”), The Killers (with their latest album, “Day & Age”) and Starsailor (he remixed “Four to the floor”!).

Beside Stuart Price, Johnny Blake largely contributes to the band’s character with his surprising and delicate voice. And last, but not least, Adam Blake gives the final touch to Zoot Woman. It’s the combination of these three geniuses that turns Zoot Woman into a rare and precious band whose live performances are always very impressive.

After an eponymous album in 2003, Zoot Woman are in full cry again in 2009 with their third album, which is named “Things are what they used to be”.

This concert will be exceptional on several levels, though. Not only will it be Zoot Woman’s first-ever appearance in Luxembourg, but also an opportunity to discover the new project of the former members of Minipli, called Plankton Waves. It’s going to be their first appearance on stage…
Last year was a very successful one for Minipli. They played at most of the festivals that took place in Luxembourg and the icing on the cake was the honor to represent Lorraine and Luxembourg at the Printemps de Bourges festival in France.
In 2010, they’ll be back under a new name but still as eager to surprise and entertain their listeners. New buzz in sight?

Later in the evening, Kuston Beater (who is best-known in Luxembourg for his powerful, yet subtle performances) will terminate the festivities with his relentless beats.

In short: prepare for a top-class electro event! And there are at least three good reasons for you to head to the Rockhal!
