TAKKA TAKKA

Even it can looks like that, Takka Takka is not just one more indie band from the actual Brooklyn scene. These four nice guys recorded a first album "We Feel Safer At Night" in 2006 and toured with their new friends of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah to promote it. In 2008, they released "Migration" in USA. This beautiful album is produced by Sean Greenhalgh of CYHSY and features guests performances by Bryan Devendort (The National) and Lee Sargent (CYHSY). Takka Takka sounds singular : it's sophisticated but simple. Just listen the great single 'Silence" : it's epic, ethnic, tight and light. "Migration" is available in Europe since sepember 2010 thanks to Lili Is Pi. A new album is coming in 2011.

Takka Takka played at L'Escalier in Liège on 22th of november 2010.
