CECILE HORTENSIA PERFORMANCE (photo at top)
Phoenix-based French singer-songwriter Cécile Hortensia will perform
her unique poetic songs, in an exploration of timeless themes seen
through the eyes of both French and American cultures.
ZAZU PERFORMANCE
Gypsy jazz, manouche jazz,
Django jazz, gypsy swing…
Call it what you will, it has the same
unforgettable ingredients: infectious swing,
dark and moody highlights, and improvisation
with reckless abandon. Be sure to catch the
Arizona band ZAZU, back by popular demand,
for a performance worthy of a
1930’s Parisian nightclub.
