Calling all Francophiles!  You don't want to miss this gorgeous evening of music from Bordeaux!

“A really good jazz sound has come out of France …Rachael Magidson hails from San Francisco, California and is a swing singer in addition to playing trumpet and percussion.Tim Taylor – Audiophile Audition

Described by CJ Bond of Jazz Music Review as“…frighteningly hedonistic impact…Magidson is one of those song stylists … that pretty much has her way with you emotionally. You could easily succumb to a state of bewitched, bothered bewilderment”

Joining Rachael is a killer quartet from Bordeaux, France, united by their shared passion for jazz and world music. Their unique arrangements infuse each song with a rich tapestry of global colors, transcending the boundaries of jazz to include beloved hits from the worlds of pop, soul, and funk.

Thierry Lujan, a virtuoso guitarist, has graced stages worldwide, from The Forbidden City Music Hall in China to Madagascar. Known for his diverse cultural fluency and heartfelt arrangements, his artistry adds an unmistakable depth to the quartet's sound.

On drums, Antoine Fillon brings a wealth of international experience, having studied and performed in iconic music hotspots like New York, Cuba, Puerto Rico, and Rio de Janeiro. His wife, Leonie Hey, a seasoned upright bassist from Stuttgart, has jazz in her blood, having played since her youth under the guidance of her father, a big band leader. The two met playing for the Late Night shows in Germany while performing with a roster of renowned artists, from Will Smith to Cindy Lauper. The pair met Thierry and Rachael after relocating to Lacanau, a serene surf town just an hour from Bordeaux.

Join us to feel the dancing waves , the sunsets and the laid-back vibes of the West Coast.
