Music fans with diverse tastes may be interested to know that tomorrow night, Bartola in Perigueux will be hosting a performance from Paris group We Insist, famous for their eclectic mix of influences.

The performance has been organised by the Produkt association, who regularly arrange for concerts in bars in the Dordogne. Often these are free to attend, though at most there is a cover charge of up to 5 euros – around £4.30.

Bartoli, a popular bar in Perigueux is the latest venue to host a Produkt gig. Tomorrow night We Insist will perform from half ten, supported by local music trio Resound.

According to Sud-Ouest.com, the band’s music is extremely diverse. They cite At the Drive In, Shellac, Led Zeppelin, Frank Zappa, John Zorn, Magma, Fugazi, The Police, Alice Cooper, Talking Heads, Jeff Beck and Tom Waits as just “some” of their influences.

The band’s latest album, ‘The Babel Inside’, was published last year by German label Exile on Mainstream. It is their fifth album in their fourteen years of performing as a group, gaining coverage from both French national media and independent, underground publications.

Sud-Ouest reports that the band’s members mix musical genres in their performance but disdain the fusion genres that have become increasingly popular in France over the past decade. Instead they describe themselves as ”metal to free jazz, punk to avant-garde”, bringing the “curious listener down little explored musical paths”.
