Vialka live on WFMU (MP3's)

Vialka are the French duo of Eric Boros and Marylise Frecheville, creating a rich tapestry of European prog rock, funereal folk, Saharan blues, gypsy punk, trad Chinese ballads, mathy rock excursions and input from every locale this band has soaked in via constant touring (100 shows a year, been to over 50+ countries). Spirited, joyfully, equally refined and splattery sounds captured here from Brian Turner's show April 20th engineered by Jason Sigal and Emma Albury (as the band just arrived from Australia!) See their site and catch them live as they continue to work their way everywhere. Besides the below session up on the Free Music Archive, you can also check out some more sounds the band has put up on Archive.org, including recent collaboration with Chinese musician Xiao He.
