The Inspector Cluzo

About

The Inspector Cluzo: not your typical rock duo. Hailing from a remote farm in Gascony, France, Laurent Lacrouts (guitar/vocals) and Mathieu Jourdain (drums) cultivate not only their own organic crops but also a singular brand of hard-hitting, blues-infused rock 'n' roll. Eschewing the conventional trappings of the music industry, their self-sufficient ethos permeates every aspect of their art, from their DIY recordings to their relentless touring schedule. Think Rage Against the Machine colliding with the grit of early blues, seasoned with a Gallic sensibility and a deep respect for the land. Their discography, a testament to their unwavering independence, charts a course from raw, energetic beginnings to more nuanced and introspective compositions. Albums like "Gasconha Blues" and "Rockfarmers" showcase their commitment to their roots and their fiercely independent spirit. The Inspector Cluzo's breakthrough came not through radio play or record label machinations, but through word-of-mouth and a reputation for electrifying live performances, earning them a dedicated global following. They've shared stages with the likes of Clutch and Eels, cementing their status as a force to be reckoned with. Currently, these farming rockers continue to tour relentlessly, bringing their unique brand of rural rebellion to stages worldwide, proving that rock 'n' roll and sustainable agriculture can indeed coexist.
