Description
Les Oignons are back! The combo created and led by impetuous trumpeter Julien Silvandâa tap dancer who plays New Orleans jazzâreturns with Tap That Jazz, this time in a new sextet format. June Milo has joined the band to add a pop touch to the standards and other compositions present in this album. But the formula that made the group a hit stays the same: subtle arrangements and tapdancing provide music that's determinedly catchy. The Oignons, in the line of bands like OrphĂ©on Celesta or the Haricots Rouges, prove how fantastic New Orleans jazz can be as an evergreen platform for creating new music. âLes Oignons are, without a doubt, one of the most original New Orleans jazz bands that the Festival has hosted. The many fans of this style of jazz, present tonight, were conquered by the musicality and the inventiveness of this groupâŠâ (Big Band Festival of Pertuis)
