ACL 2024: Paco Versailles

 Friday at 2:45pm at the Tito's tent.  Per their Youtube page:

Paco Versailles is a collaboration between guitarist/composer Vahagni and songwriter/producer Ryan Merchant (Capital Cities) Their sound is a mix of Flamenco guitar rhythms with Disco - leaning electronic production and captivating vocals. A new genre they call Dancemenco.

The name Paco Versailles was conceived while imagining a collaboration between their biggest influences, the legendary Spanish guitars Paco De Lucia and French Electronic artist Daft Punk and Air, both products of the Parisian Suburb of Versailles.

"Unwind" is their most streamed song. KCRW eclectic vibes. Reminds me of Jungle, too.

"Je T'aime" is good. I like the video. The L.A. tourism bureau should use it.

This is nice and chill.
