Margaux Liénard & Julien Biget + Cisco Herzhaft & Geneviève Dartevelle

Two unique duos, an evening steeped in pure blues. All musicians are French-speaking, but you could drop them in the Mississippi Delta without hesitation. A musical trip full of raw emotions and virtuosity. From the dusty southern roots to sparkling European finesse: this double concert brings tradition and innovation together. Margaux Liénard & Julien Biget Wat what do you get if you cross a viola d’amore with a slide guitar? A surprising and idiosyncratic sound universe... Margaux Liénard & Julien Biget take the raw blues from the 30s and give it a surprising, elegant and contemporary twist. They dive into the repertoire of, among others, Lead Belly and Blind Willie Johnson, but effortlessly let their own imagination loose on it. The result? Blues that chafes and caresses, with a subtle folk layer that lets everything breathe beautifully. With their intense interplay and lived-in voices they drag you into stories about love, loss and life itself. An ode to the roots of the blues, with a fresh, personal touch. https://www.lienardbiget.com/ With: Margaux Liénard: vocals, viola d’amore Julien Biget: vocals, guitar, bouzouki Cisco Herzhaft & Geneviève Dartevelle Zin in pure, unadulterated blues with a twist? Then you are in the right place with this explosive duo. Cisco Herzhaft is a living legend within the European blues scene: a master of fingerpicking and slide guitar. Also a born storyteller who peppers his music with fascinating and often humorous anecdotes. He played together with some of the world's greatest and most famous bluesmen and toured through Europe, the Verenigde Staten, Canada, Asia and more... At his side stands Geneviève Dartevelle, the Belgian “harmonica woman” who lets her instrument sing, cry and crackle. She is probably the first and only woman in Belgium who has specialized in the blues harmonica for more than 30 years. Together they form a duo that sparks, winks and above all plays with visible pleasure. This is blues as it should be: warm, lived-in, spontaneous, a bit naughty and straight from the heart. https://cisco-herzhaft.com/ https://genevievedartevelle.com With: Cisco Herzhaft: guitar Geneviève Dartevelle: harmonica Not to be missed: an evening that effortlessly manages to touch both the seasoned blues lover and the curious listener.
