Floanne is a songstress performing retro tunes with a modern twist. Known in the nightclub scene as an interpreter of French chanson and the Edith Piaf repertoire, her band includes some of New York's top jazz improvisers. A refreshing blend of farm girl and urban actress, she is inspired by an eclectic range of performers and musical traditions. Her newest program contrasts old-fashioned romantic songs in a didactic presentation, dissecting with humor and wisdom the cliché that love can be.

Doors: 7:00 pm / Show: 7:30 pm

“The last time I felt shivers down my spine was at Floanne’s concert. Her voice is very unique with a ‘je ne sais quoi’ hypnotizing effect.” —Agathe Leroy

“Floanne is elegant and edgy in her personality and has regal, glamorous looks like some old Hollywood beauty. She is a sexy beast and a musical pleasure. Her opera voice is truly gorgeous.” —Danielle Miceli

She will be accompanied by Ian J. MacDonald on Friday, April 4 at 7:30pm at New York’s Subculture (renovated music venue at 45 Bleecker Street), and Friday, April 11 at 9pm at the prestigious Miami-Dade County Auditorium, for the opening concert of the Florida-France Festival. The festival marks the 34th season of programming by Tigertail, also presenting Jazz phenomenon Cécile McLorin Salvant, French choreographer Cédric Andrieux, local artists, and numerous classics of French cinema.
