Eboni Fondren 4tet at Le Melville

American jazz vocalist Eboni Fondren brings her quartet to Le Melville in Paris for an intimate evening of swinging jazz. Fondren, a Kansas City native and lead singer of the Kansas City Big Band, has been compared to Nancy Wilson and recently performed at the G20 summit in India. Her voice blends gospel and R&B influences with a natural sense of swing.

For this Paris concert, Fondren is joined by French jazz musicians: pianist and organist Laurent Marode, bassist Raphaël Dever, and drummer Stéphane Chandelier. The group recently recorded a critically acclaimed album together, capturing the spirit of an American in Paris. The cozy venue on Rue Jean Mermoz provides the setting for an evening of vocal jazz.
