From the original blueprints through to the execution it's a grand slam. Collaborations with folk legend Donovan, David Bartholom�, Lisa Kekaula, Yael Naim and Lily Frost creates a broad musical spectrum while French comic artists Dupuy & Berberian bring Variety Lab's vision to life.

Variety Lab is the alias of one Thierry Bellia. His first CD � 2003's Providence � gained notoriety for its lead single "London In The Rain," which was, at the time, included in every single lounge compilation. As in the past Bellia, alone, put Team Up! together, but he did not forget to emphasize his friends' assistance in the process. Let's just name his henchmen from the French band Orwell (J�r�me Didelot and Alexandre Longo, aka Cascadeur and winner of the 2008 Inrockuptibles CQFD prize). Making use of his friends, instruments, machines and other weird objects (for instance the Optigan, a toy devised back in the 70's), Thierry has worked non-stop on this project. - more on this story
