 05/09/2008 Planet Notion loves simplicity, which is why we love the Black Cab Sessions. Here’s the concept: Take a cab; add a band or artist; drive around a bit; record a live session. Simple.
To celebrate their one year anniversary and 50 live sessions, The Black Cab will play host to a very special artist. This isn’t to say that previous sessions haven’t cut the proverbial mustard - oh no, because they have.
Just take a look: Death Cab for Cutie, My Morning Jacket, Daniel Johnston, Martha Wainwright and next big things like Lykie Li, Noah and The Whale and Eugene McGuinness, have all graced the cab in the past.
Hell, the Black Cab has even garnered global recognition, has taken to festivals including Field Day, Underage and Green Man, and will soon be going international as it tours the US.
This brings us onto the special guest we brushed on earlier. First, let’s get one thing straight. Don’t blame us when we say we don’t have a clue who this guest may be; the Black Cab has yet to blow its horn.
All we have to go on is the following information: It’s a guy. He’s alone. He’s internationally renowned. He definitely won’t be wank. And you’ll definitely be amazed. Well, or so we’ve been assured. Stay tuned. It's going to be massive!
Future performances will include Calexico, Lambchop, TV On The Radio, Jens Lekman, The Walkmen, Stricken City, Left With Pictures and many, many more. Anyway, to become accustomed to the Black Cab Sessions format, visit the website HERE! |
