Chanson, New Orleans & Gypsy Swing @ Anthology

  • Anthology 375 Karangahape Road Auckland, Auckland, 1010 New Zealand (map)

French song, Orleans and gypsy swing with NZ's premier vocal manouche band La Luna & the Gadjos, lighting up ‘Anthology’ Lounge, Thursday 1 August.

The drama of vintage Piaf is recreated by Chanteuse La Luna together with an irreverent mix of French gypsy classics from the steamy hot clubs of Paris coloured with the soulful sounds of New Orleans jazz.

The line-up features Caro Manins as La Luna, award-winning sax-man Roger Manins, and the extraordinary gypsy talents of Phillip Beatson - lead guitar, James "le Prof" of the burning violin, Sam Swindells - la pompe, and master Olivier Holland – contrabass

“Sensational, just sensational!” - Flounders Park, Nelson Jazz Festival
