The Lagniappe Sessions :: L’Eclair

Earlier this summer the Geneva, Switzerland based L’Eclair released their fourth LP, Cloud Drifter, via our neighborhood friends down the hill at Innovative Leisure. We’ve been following the Swiss outfit since Frank Maston turned us onto them in 2019 when the group supported his stateside tour, and later recorded the 2021 collaborative album, Souvenir. For their debut Lagniappe Session, L’Eclair reimagines some 1979 disco heat via Anita Ward’s “Ring My Bell,” embrace the street soul of Lisa Baron’s 1990 “Lovin N Affection,” and engage with something more recent in the form of Beach House’s now decade-old “Space Song.”

L’Eclair :: Noshtta

Been tuned into Radio Free Aquarium Drunkard? Cool, then you’ve no doubt heard us spinning a good bit of L’Eclair since launching the station last month. May 22 sees the release of the Swiss outfit’s next recorded output, a 10″ ep entitled Noshtta.
