Shaka Ponk: Deezer session

A live session by French rockers Shaka Ponk for Deezer, showcasing one of the country's most exciting live
acts.

The session features four tracks, Black Listed,   Wanna Get Free , Lucky Girl  and On The Road.

I love these sessions, presenting the acts up close and personal. It feels less showbiz and more about the music. Like being a guest at a particularly well-lit and nicely filmed practice session.

It follows the release of their The White Pixel Ape album last month, the album featuring the singles Lucky G1rl and Wanna Get Free.

Shaka Ponk hit serious success with their previous album he Geeks and the Jerkin' Socks, which even this year saw them win the best music DVD award at February's Victoires de la Musique awards, for the Geeks on Stage collection, which featured their show at Bercy in Paris during the band's tour that followed their last album.

The band are playing live extensively this year, with three nights at the Zénith in Paris at the beginning of June, festival dates across the country and beyond over the summer, and a show at the Palais Omnisports de Paris Bercy in November.
