The world ambassadors of French hot jazz are presenting their highly anticipated first full-length CD “Je Suis Swing”, a tribute to the Zazou youth of 1930s and 40s Paris, with a mix of American and French jazz standards, sprinkled with hidden gems. They have traveled the globe from New York to Fiji, from hidden speakeasies to Lincoln Center, spreading France’s proverbial joie de vivre, led by singer Tatiana Eva-Marie, named one of her generation’s “finest rising vocalists” by magazine Vanity Fair. She will be joined by violin virtuoso Adrien Chevalier and young guitar wizard Olli Soikkeli, complementing her vocals with the iconic sound of the Hot Club De France. Their repertoire will include the music made famous by Charles Trenet, Yves Montand, Django & Grappelli, Jean Sablon and more, with original arrangements that reflect the innocent decadence of the Parisian jazz age.

Je Suis Swing
Not so great gypsy band and the singer sounds like a little mouse. But there's fun sparkles on the French covers, all well-known classics from the 1930' and 40's. I think the few songs in English steal the places for others French songs. And why in the world a band so French have to choose an English name?
ReplyDeleteWould you indispensable people be kind enough to put this one up again?
