Thursday July 15th

A night of Music with Le Chat Lunatique, Missincinatti, and Jessica Fichot. July 15th at 9pm. $5

As unpredictable, fearless, and entertaining as their namesake, Le Chat Lunatique (Albuquerque) purveys an addictive genre they call “filthy, mangy jazz,” a signature sound that makes you want to smoke and drink a lot—if only you could get off the dance floor. Le jazz hot of Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli is their north star, but they use that beacon to navigate through a wide range of genres, blending Western swing, classical, reggae, and doowop, into original compositions and reworked standards alike.

Missincinatti dives into the salty seas of yore to uncover forgotten tales of shipwrecks, fantastical crocodiles, a suicidal captains mistress, and the various hardships and sorrows of a life at sea.  These seasoned stories are told through chamber-esque compositions, field recordings, and timeless arrangements of old melodies created by Jessica Catron, Jeremy Drake and Corey Marc Fogel. www.myspace.com/missincinatti

Jessica Fichot is French at heart, but with a soul that's truly international. Her multi-ethnic French/Chinese/American upbringing colors the songs she likes to write. Jessica takes the listener on a journey out of the French chanson tradition, into the lands of gypsy, Chinese andLatin American folk music, and through the classics of American repertoire.
