De la Crau, a band from Marseilles with unclassifiable, wandering influences, reveal a thousand-faceted Occitan poetry through their rock universe. Sam Karpienia sings a rough, off-key Provençal distorted by looping electric guitar riffs. Thomas Lippens hammers out the trance with percussion and scrap wood. Manu Reymond creaks the bow of his double bass in syncopated sequences, reminiscent of an ancient trance. This new artistic approach anchors Occitan culture in today's world.
De La Crau expresses the power and diversity of the revival of a culture which, stemming from the langue d'Oc of the 12th and 13th centuries, takes us back to the time of the troubadours through roots that extend as far as Spain and Italy. This rocking ensemble follows and extends the effervescence of "Lo Còr de la Plana", which played a leading role under the aegis of Manu Théron. Sam Karpienia, from Gacha Empega, another founding ensemble, went on to form other ensembles such as Dupain and Forabandit.
