Los Bonobos
Published 6th Sep 2006 by Sue Popper

Take your Sunday roast on the 8th October with a pinch of salt!! Joogleberry is in the mood for laughter ? it?s Brighton Paramount Comedy festival after all! So come enjoy a delicious roast lunch cooked by our brand spanking new chef, then kick back in our funky restaurant for an afternoon of top notch entertainment with Los Bonobos?and this one?s on us!

LOS BONOBOS are a duo who fuse elements of French folk and funky bluesy guitar with cheeky lyrics. They are: Heike, eccentric Germanic by birth- and blessed with a special sense of humour- and Lionel, moody Frenchman in charge of guitar. Heike arrived at singing via the theatre/performance art route. Lionel used to tour with Blues and Gothic bands. Together they create mellow tunes with easy-on-the-eye costume changes (lots of those!), from tomboy to diva and beyond. Their lyrics focus on the ridiculous ("Haircut") with cheeky wordplay ("Lettuce Make Love") and some shameless ransacking of foreign tongues ("Beaujolais Blues", Sushi Lover). Oh, and there is always room for improvisation. Be prepared to be surprised. Feedback from recent gigs: "Fantastic... I haven't laughed like this in weeks..!"
