Yves francois et rocambu Jazz
By Gozamos on May 26, 2010 | Leave a comment!
Rocambu Jazz was formed in 2002 as a project to preform the varied rhythms of african based musics (like highlife , rumba or biguine) with a jazz horn section replacing the vocalist as the front line of the band. The music is based on the common threads not the differences that Brazillan, Martinique, Cuban ,Nigerian, Guinean, Congolese and New Orleans music have with each other We hope that you will enjoy the varied sambas, highlifes, biguines and calypsos along with the swing.
