saturday 30 October El Negocito, Barbantdam 121, Ghent gratis
Sam Coenegrachts - vocals & lead guitar
A violin, a double bass, three guitars and a voice join forces to create a universe at once tender and animalistic, fusing the explosive energy of gipsy jazz and the lyrical honesty of the great chansonniers. Imagine a punkrock rhythm section going acoustic, with Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli exchanging solos while Tom Waits, Jacques Brel and Louis Armstrong pop in to tell their darkest tales. Live, La Femme Belge eschews neither chaos nor beauty, performing with an apocalyptic intensity seldom seen in acoustic line-ups. This outfit is pretty hard to outswing, and their effervescent performances have left many an audience bewildered |
programma 2010 friday 29 October saturday 30 October sunday 31 October
with kind support of the City of Ghent |
