RESPECT - SING THAT FIGHT

Tap That Jazz (formerly Les Oignons) is the most modern of trad jazz bands, fronted by the daring trumpet of Julien Silvand and a group that’s adopted the codes of the genre: brass, banjo, sousaphone, washboard and… tap dancing. The band provides a rare and efficient New Orleans setting for the power and soul in the voice of the wonderful June Milo. “Respect” pays tribute to the great songs that have worked for female emancipation, and among the references here you can find Aretha Franklin, Nina Simone, Cesària Évora, Anne Sylvestre, Bizet’s Carmen, Elisapie and Janis Joplin.
