Rouge: French Café Songs

Celebrate France’s resilience and spirit in this francophone concert! You will be transported to the streets of Paris with Rouge, Seattle’s premiere nostalgic French music group. Made up of a team of internationally touring musicians based in the Northwest, they perform racing waltzes, romantic ballads, and happy jazz-swings, reinterpreting and transforming 1930-1960’s French music. They also create original tunes & lyrics inspired by this rich tradition. Fronted by the sensual vocals of Janet Rayor, she channels the best French chanteuses throughout time in instantly recognizeable classics from La Vie en Rose to Ne Me Quitte Pas. Rouge charmed audiences at their concert last year at VAA, and they will be performing from their latest CD, Café Bonbon, and more. Rayor is joined by Dave Bartley (guitar), Steve Rice (accordion), Karen Iglitzin (violin).
