The band began as a ska group but quickly transcended the genre, mixing punk, reggae, rock, swing and jazz influences. They sing in both French and English, sometimes mixing the two in songs. Their third album, Dances of Resistance, was recorded in 2003 and largely has an anti-war theme. In 2009 they launched their latest album La Belle Étoile. Since then they are still on tour all over the world, from their own country France to other countries in Europe, but also to foreign places like Abu Dhabi and New Zealand.

Babylon Circus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Zatla tribe is comin' downtown
Roots, rock'n'reggae big sound
Di Babylon Circus is comin' right thru
With an important message to you
Get your troubles away
We got good news today
People get ready
And a-chuck chuck chuck
We'll rock you 'til the morning
Until the sun comes rising
Heavy sound system, comin' from the mountain
Hear dis lovely riddim, ya gonna feel like jumping
jumping
Lose your sadness and forget all your weakness
Come to sing along
Ya gonna feel so strong
Ya gonna feel better
(Chorus)
Smokin' sinsemilla with my brother and my sister
Listening to reggae rocker singing 'round the corner
Say if ya don't know what to do, to make your life
go better
Just remember your roots
Roots and culture (bis)
Make it in a rub-a-dub style...
Roots, rock, reggae (2x)
Smokin' di ganja...
