Japanese Country - Les Doux Cactus

I haven't know this band long enough to vouch for their character. But in my short time listening to them, I think they are sufficiently quirky and interesting that they'll be new to you. So - without further adieu, here are Montreal's Les Doux Cactus with their tune UFO.

So - what's the deal? Montreal is the most populous city in French Canada, and these guys are francophones, but they're singing in Japanese. I'm as surprised as you are. Find out the story here.

And for an interview, listen to the October 5th episode of CBC's C'est La Vie:

Not that they've spent their entire life in Montreal. They made it into a Hollywood movie soundtrack...



Yep. I know. Incredible. The Boxoffice truly is a pig that needs to be fed.

Finally a special note for our curator, Scott, and for anyone who might be interested, you can find the MP3's for download here.
