Ray-Ban Rooms meets Black Cab Sessions
For the second year running Ray-Ban teamed up with the Black Cab Sessions. Bringing you exclusive performances from the best up and coming artists, live and direct from the backseat of a hackney carriage.
So we hailed the cab and set off for the Secret Garden Party (22nd-25th July, 2010), ‘for hire’ light ablaze, looking for the freshest talent to perform exclusively for your enjoyment.
You’ll never guess who we had in the back of our cab this year... That lovely Eliza Doolittle, along with French pair John and Jehn, French sounding Brooklynites Savoir Adore, NYC busker-done-good Marques Toliver and finally the sound of the, er... summer; Summer Camp.
Taxi! Next stop Summer Sundae festival (13th - 15th August, 2010)...

Eliza Doolittle
On her debut album, to be released this June, Eliza marries breezily beautiful melodies and witty, erudite lyrics with a delightfully off-kilter twist and a knack for a killer hook.
Black Cab Sessions
John and Jehn
French duo John and Jehn returned this Summer with their stunning second album, ‘Time For The Devil’.
Savoir Adore
Even in a scene as vibrant as the current one in Brooklyn, Paul Hammer and Deidre Muro - the principal members of Savoir Adore bring something entirely unique...
Summer Camp
Jeremy Warmsley and Elizabeth Sankey make the kind of music you want to hear when your skin has been sunkissed and you've got sand in your shoes.
Eliza Doolittle

Roots Manuva
We had no idea how this session would turn out! How were we going to accommodate one the UK's best rappers in the back of our damp cab?! Like this....
Lissie
Having not stopped for the last 3 days, we were warned Lissie might be a bit tired and hungry...
Steve Mason
We'd seen Steve perform at Secret Garden Party and were desperate to get him in the cab. Here he plays the beautiful 'All Come Down'...
Erland and The Carnival
Erland Cooper and his carnival of merry men clamber into the backseat of the cab to deliver a stunning stripped down rendition of 'Trouble in Mind'...
