WE'RE
WORKING
ON A NEW
ALBUM!
But there's more...
Every single will be accompanied by a ‘b-side’ in the form of a Cochon Bleu-version of a famous pop-, folk- or rock-song. We already have an interesting longlist of possible titles, but we’re open for suggestions. Just send us an
e-mail, and who knows we’ll redecorate your favorite classic! On this page are the songs for the album that have been released up to now!
But this time our working method is slightly different.
We won’t be presenting a full time CD when it’s finished, but we will be releasing the songs one single at a time.
On this page you will be able to listen to & watch them
in the coming months. At the end of the line you will be able to purchase the album as a whole.

CREDITS
CROYEZ MON / OCT 2016
Someone getting the blame, defending himself with
‘I didn’t do it’, as well as ‘The devil forced me’. These two statements don’t gel. Musically Cochon Bleu’s attention is shed from Louisiana, across the Gulf of Mexico to Cuba. The added brass section completes this tropical cocktail.

ME AND BOBBY McGEE / DEC 2016
This Kris Kristofferson song, Janis Joplin’s biggest hit, takes place lyrically somewhere in between Baton Rouge and New Orleans. Actually it isn’t that big a stretch for Cochon Bleu to turn i tinto a cajun waltz, featuring ti fer, fiddle and accordion.
