Even better than Wes Anderson's Gypsy cabs is Black Cab Sessions, an online UK phenomenon currently tapping into Londons ever-eclectic and fast moving music scene and the talk of the town... Besting tired ol' Rocker-Billy Jools Holland for the most diverse and cutting edge selection of greatest and latest musicians touching down in ol' London town. Each act is given the honour of performing live and unrehearsed in the back of a hackney carriage. The results then filmed and beamed up to Davie Bowies world wide interweb for your viewing pleasure. Achingly hip but also beautifully spontaneous and simple, with a delightful knockabout spirit. Here are a few of my favourites so far:
Cold War Kids
Killa Kella
The Kooks
Benjamin Zephaniah
