Laurent Vigneron & the Po' Boys
Antoine Lissoir (cl;as;bars) Timothé Le Maire (tb); Benjamin Clement (gt); Max Malkomes (db); Laurent Vigneron (dr)
Laurent Vigneron is undoubtedly the most faithful representative of the New Orleans spirit in our capital. For years, he has kept this music alive with an irresistible sense of swing, an inimitable flair for stick tosses, fiery solos that captivate the audience, and above all a deeply infectious joy in playing.
Through him, the full vitality of this founding music comes back to life: the music that laid the joyful, danceable foundations of a huge part of 20th-century popular music — no less than that.
He returns to us today with his flagship band for an evening that promises to be hot, hot, hot, driven by rhythm, celebration and sheer good spirits.
The perfect warm-up on the eve of our first anniversary.
