Frenchy rides again

Winter is hitting South Africa hard. Where’s the sun? It’s gray and freezing outside. What can be a better remedy for this Winter blues than a lit fireplace, a glass of Shiraz in your hand and an earful of musical French Côte d’Azur feeling charming your inner ear?

Here’s the recipe: jazz manouche and other pearls from Thomas Dutronc. Dutronc is a French singer and jazz manouche guitarist with quiet a family background: His mom is Françoise Hardy and his father is Jacques Dutronc. Both are cultural royalty in France and artists with a very long track record in French music.

With Frenchy, Dutronc delivers on classic chansons interpreted in his own way. As duet partners and guests extraordinaire this outing features among others Iggy Pop, Diana Krall and Billy F Gibbons.

Alors, c’est si bon, mon pot!
