Imagine strolling down the busy streets of London or visiting the majestic Arc de Triomphe in Paris and bumping into your favourite musical act performing in the open air. You just might bump into Arcade Fire singing Neon Bible, cramped up in a Parisian elevator or Florence and the Machine singing My Boy while unwinding at a scenic London park. Youtube channels watchlistentell and LaBlogotheque organize take away shows in London and Paris, respectively. What is a take away show you, you ask? It is when a band or a musical artist take to the streets or perform their numbers in a rather unusual setting. They take the acts away from the stage and into a restaurant kitchen or out and about. They feature anyone and anyone from rather popular artists like Bon Iver or Phoenix to the lesser known but equally talented ones from around the world, like Don't Blame Mexico or Guillemots. If you are a fan of quality, relatively underrated music, then these channels are just for you. It is quite something to view the artists when they are calm, relaxed, and just having fun. So kick back, relax, and let the music take over.
