Tracing Arcs (RnB Tracks)

When you hear the lush, seductive vocals of Fran Kapelle of Trading Arcs, an edgy film noir starts rolling in your head. Classy Trip Hop beats, elaborate Jazz chords and deep upright basses sketch out the subtle exotica of a femme fatale. This British band is backed by the musical mastery of base player Terry Pack, who’s worked with The Enid, Johnny Marr, and other iconic UK and European Jazz artists. Highly regarded since the 90s, the Arcs appeared on the “best of” for Future Music magazine, and scored for art installations, The Loop Dance Co. and theatres in London and Milan.
