Canadian Blast vs Oui Love

Zooey, Saidah Baba Talibah & Maylee Todd

For the past 2 years, Oui Love and Canadian Blast have been bringing the best new artists from France and Canada to the UK. After successful nights in various London venues and UK festivals, Oui Love and Canadian Blast are getting together to celebrate new music with two of the most exciting bands for 2012.

Zooey is two hearts beating as one. Matthieu Beck and Marie Merlet fell in love on a French island in the sun, lulled by Burt Bacharach and the Wilson brothers. They now live in South London where they create a unique and charming union of easy listening and dance music. Their electronic pop songs blend quirky beat patterns with melancholic synths and daydream exotica vocals. « Travelin’ light » is their mantra.

Saidah Baba Talibah will take you on a trip, get you high, bring you to your knees and take you to that place called grace. Toronto rock soul songtress Saidah Baba Talibah’s – who’s been described as Living Color-meets-Erykah Badu – debut LP (S)Cream is more than just an album: it’s an experience.

Maylee Todd  is one of Canada's most exciting young performers, and after selling out shows on her first tour of France and the U.K. is poised for success on the international stage. With a quirky and charismatic stage presence, Maylee delivers an incredibly diverse repertoire of soulful pop tunes, often inspired tropical grooves and featuring such obscure instruments as the Paraguayan harp.
