THE CAROLOREGIANS: UK Tour (2012)

Ahh Belgium – famous for luxury chocolate, lager for wife beaters (allegedly), and boss reggae. Er – rewind a second – it sounded like you just said ‘boss reggae.’ I did actually – and with soul-fied heavy syncopation to boot. That’ll be The Caroloregians then, who (PR hype has it) rock their shit like The Meters getting it on with The Upsetters. And for once – that’s not wide of the mark – check out Donna Donna below off their latest long player and (implausible as it may seem) suddenly Belgium sounds as funky as Kingston. Couple that with the fact that they make LPs with names like Funky Reggay (sic) and my favourite Pum Pum Hotel (I’ve been there – it’s great) and this is a band you need to experience more of. Happily they’re in the UK until the 10 March so there’s still time to catch them if you live in Harlow, Blaenau Festiniog (really), Leeds or Manchester – details below. And their latest LP Fat Is Back is out too – though I had trouble finding it anywhere but iTunes. Good hunting.
