Joelle, Florence -'s Kiss Of Fire-
Florence Joelle's Kiss Of Fire
Super fine and sassy singer fusing a Tarrantino-esque sense of cool with a vocal style that imbibes both Peggy Lee and Edith Piaf with touches of jazz and rock 'n' roll. They conjure an atmosphere of sultry exoticism, combine early R'n'B stylings with French chanson and create something very special. Introducing the unstoppable Chris Campion on click bass. The infamous Arthur Lager (aka Nick Comb - Gallon Drunk/The Scientists) on drums and percussion and, on lead guitar, the tenacious tunesmith Huck Whitney (The Flaming Stars). Florence Joelle, the songstress with a style all her own and a subconscious colonised by vintage American tunes, sings of things that go bump in the night. Paris-born, she was bred on jazz at home, and on the music of the citys streets: the Gypsy art of Django Reinhardt, bal musette, and North African rai.
