The French Kicks - 9/16/06 - Triple Rock

Whoops, this show was last week. Guess I should give it a mention in my little blog here. What is not to like about the French Kicks and their dancey new wave hooks. They are a band anybody can enjoy. The attendance was fairly modest, so there was plenty of room for everyone to have their own dancing space. Their set consisted almost entirely of songs from their last two releases. Some of the favorites of the evening were "One More Time," "Following Waves," and "Only So Long" from Trial of the Century. Selections from the new release included "So Far We Are," "Knee High," and "No Mean Time." The French Kicks don't pretend to be anything flashy, but their music does have a sort of swagger about it, and this evening, so did by feet and my hips and my shoulders. I'll dance to the French Kicks over the music playing at dance clubs any night of the week.
