Dowally + Philippe Boudot: Ici et Là-Bas
Part of Edinburgh Tradfest 2025
(Sun 4 May: 8pm)
Cinematic-folk duo Dowally and innovative French drummer Philippe Boudot celebrate the release of their album Ici et Là-Bas, recorded last year in Edinburgh.
Dowally have become renowned for their collaborations with top musicians such as Phil Alexander (Moishe's Bagel) and Ciaran Ryan (Dallahan). Their latest partnership with in-demand drummer Philippe Boudot (currently touring with renowned songwriter Clara Ysé) sees the duo at their most creative, making lyrical, joyful music, whilst anchored to their folk beginnings.
Over the course of a single week, they wrote and recorded an entire album, with voice, fiddle, guitar, drums and percussion. That freshness is apparent across the tracks, ranging from epic morricone-esque compositions and new folk tunes, to yearning songs in both English and French.
