Armelle Yons and Kaptain Bando take over the legendary junk boat “La Dame de Canton” for a vibrant, timeless evening; an explosive double bill combining Armelle Yons’s “caba-rock” songs with Kaptain Bando’s intergalactic energy.
ARMELLE YONS: “MON SECRET”, “L’ESSENTIEL” … With a stripped-back musical arrangement, accompanied by Olivier Azzano (guitar), Delphine Labey (cajon and backing vocals), and Diabolo on harmonica, Armelle Yons will lay her secret bare and reveal its “essence” to you. After performing the great classics of French chanson throughout France and abroad, Armelle Yons is taking a bold new direction and reinventing herself. Her own lyrics, set to music by the duo La Bestiole, gave rise to “Mon secret”, her debut album, released in early 2024. Armelle combines her love of words with the stage energy that has become her trademark. A musical cabinet of curiosities blending rock, chanson, and a certain irreverent spirit inherited from cabaret. KAPTAIN BANDO: Get ready to embark on an extraordinary musical journey with Kaptain Bando, a one-of-a-kind quartet straight from another galaxy. Their mission? To spread waves of peace and pure energy through a dazzling Tango-Fusion sound, electrified by bursts of metal from outer space and shot through with epic lyrical and melodic flashes! After an intergalactic crash in the depths of the South Atlantic Ocean, these music-loving cosmic survivors gathered the fragments of an ancient tango, plugged it into an amp, and reinvented it for our time—with power, tenderness, and a healthy dose of irony. The result: free-spirited, danceable music unconstrained by convention—an uninhibited Tango Rock sound that sets the stage ablaze and gets bodies moving. The Kaptain Bando spacecraft may land near you for a scorching stopover. Fasten your seat belts—the engines are firing up. Takeoff is imminent!
Price: From 12 to 14 euros.
