BRITTANY TAKES AUSTRALIA BY STORMAustralia (November 2006)
Celtic, Rock
With 3 bands from Brittany (France) on tour in November (Matmatah, Yann Tiersen and Cecile Corbel), there is no doubt that there will be some noise from France this Spring in Australia.
In France, on a musical level, Brittany is one of the richest and most diverse regions. Host of some of the biggest festivals in France, Brittany is also associated to many big names in the French music industry in with artists such as Matmatah, Yann Tiersen, Miossec and Alan Stivell.
