One of the highlights of last year's End of the Road festival was a return from Giant Sand's Howe Gelb - a curator of one of the festival's stages back in its second year.
A session with Gelb was planned but scuppered by timing and we didn't get him in front of the Best Fit cameras until he passed through Paris (home of our, erm, European office). At the Paris Musique Club in La Gaîté Lyrique, Gelb rolled out a jaunty improvisation helped by a piano / installation that was part of Resistance, a piece by Collective Scale.
Gelb tours the UK throughout June and July, including a show at Meltdown Festival.
