| Jazz..,
France has a long history with this American art form. From smokey Paris jazz clubs to the streets of New Orleans, the
music pulsates with its own individual sound. Duo Gadjo presents their interpretation of this music as a union of two cultures. Jeff is originally from San Francisco and Isabelle is French. After performing professionally in France for the past 15 years, they are now bringing their act to the Bay Area. Duo Gadjo accompany themselves on guitars, and sing in both French and English.Their repertoire includes many standards from the American Songbook, but also some swinging Louisiana Blues featuring Jeff on slide guitar and Isabelle on Washboard.The Duo can also be expanded to a trio (add Upright Bass,) or a quartet (add Violin, or Accordeon). Jeff and Isabelle also perform with the Hot Club of San Francisco. |
