“On the road”, Christine Tassan and Les Imposteures

Twenty years of assumed imposture is not nothing. “It’s worth celebrating,” exclaims Christine Tassan. In writing, in the welcome to this seventh album, but we hear it from afar on the road of a thousand detours which has, she describes, “the accents of Kerouac, the chords of Willie Nelson, the fingers of Django Reinhardt again and again “. Hear that gypsy jazz, western swing, all nomadic musics intersect and make fun of each other. It’s their nature. And voila in the imposture, which turns out to be a posture to justify the adventure. What we remember again and again is the joy of playing together music without borders, which resembles us, echoes of our Félix. A cheerful walk, energetic but not angry, to the rhythm of Christine Tassan’s sung creations, punctuated by instrumental stages with her four impostors. Cycling in Stanley Park, Lost in the Rockies, Walk in Vernon… titles are promises, always kept. And it continues !
