Mark Lamarr plays the music that you never knew you loved alongside great live sessions. Joining Mark at Maida Vale this week with some gravel throated vocals and dirty grooves are the Congo Faith Healers.

Described as falling somewhere between Tom Waits and Led Zeppelin, the band are a diverse bunch with the drummer hailing from the Congo, a double bass player from Croatia, an acoustic guitar player from Paris and a singer/songwriter from "some undisclosed continent".

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
