They are not the Jackson Five or The Kelly Family, but four very talented brothers having fun, singing and making music together: the 4 Foulkes. The family spirit is extraordinary, somewhat magical, the perfect mixture of confidence, love and dedication to each other that makes it so original.

Last weekend, the 4 family members gave the one and only concert of the year at La Moe (Santísima Trinidad, 32, Madrid), covering versions of Carlos Jobim, Prince, Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, The Beatles among others, most of these interpretations were even better than the original ones. One highlight was the Celentano song Parole, parole, which the brothers dedicated to their parents and which received a special note thanks to Paula’s sensitive and sexy voice, accompanied by Alex and Camilo.

Check out the extended groovy, funky version of Billie Jean from a concert last year at the legendary Zé Bar (Santa Ana, 25, Madrid, unfortunately closed since May 2007).

As a little extra you can enjoy listening to Alex and Paula at home in concert, singing Agua de beber de Jobim.

Hopefully, we don´t have to wait one more year until the next family session. It would be a great opportunity to play the cover versions that were missing in the last concert: Just remember David Bowie’s Space Oddity interpretation – very thrilling!

  2. So, et je vais continuer en français pour être sur de ne pas dire n’importe quoi. Je ne sais pas bien si la Paula que je cherche à joindre aura ce message, peu importe je tente ma chance. Voilà si tu a ce message donc paula, j’aimerai beaucoup savoir ce que tu deviens et comment va la vie et tout ça et tout ça, si tu roulés toujours avec ce magnifique scooter, si tu cours toujours comme une folle pour le travail, si tu dors aussi peu, si le français progresse, et une tonne de chose encore je crois bien. Bref discuter un peu. J’ai essayé une ou deux fois déjà mais mes mails ont dus se perdre dans l’océan internet. J’espère que ce n’est que ca. Si tu as ce message et je l’espère bien, à bientôt sur l’écran d’un ordinateur. Ca me ferait plaisir d’avoir des nouvelles.
