134 Oxford St, Darlinghurst (Taylors Square)
 
 
This London based three piece is made up of Kathrin deBoer (vocals), Ricky Fabulous (guitar) & DJ Modest (decks). The band was formed after Ricky and Modest, who played bizarre turntable and guitar sets in London bars, bumped into Kathrin in the market one day. She did some singing over a cup of tea with the pair and Belleruche was formed.

Belleruche describe their sound as handmade hip hop blues soul, like Sarah Vaughan, Charlie Christian and Cut Chemist stuck in a dusty second hand record store with wine and a sampler, Belleruche make turntable soul music.

Their sound is pure soulful jazz with scratches aplenty. Their influences vary from the likes of DJ Vadim to Nina Simone to Hendrix, which results a beautifully soulful, melodic and energetic album with a sensational voice you can't quite pin down and hooks you can't forget.

The trio have attracted attention from luminaries in the UK underground music scene. Vocalist Kathrin deBoer has recorded tracks with DJ Vadim and performed with the Bonobo live band. They have also remixed tracks for labels including The Elephant, Trojan and Quannum.

If you like Lamb and Portishead then Belleruche will be right up your street. Be sure not to miss this intimate performance of tracks off their stellar new album 'Turntable Soul Music' and more.

Feature Album:

Mr Chop - For Pete's Sake (5 Day Weekend)

UK-US producer Mark Ronson sure did spark a big debate with his covers album Version a few years back. On one side of the debate, it could be argued he did a good thing by getting funk and soul...
