Monday's Jam Special French Songs

At Baiser Salé, we've known François Constantin and his jams for thirty years, so it's no surprise that he's invited the entire French jazz scene to perform alongside him! He's managed to make this weekly rendezvous an internationally renowned institution.

Edith Piaf, Brassens, Jacques Brel, Juliette Greco, France Gall, Barbara... the list goes on! Their styles are varied, sometimes diametrically opposed, but what they have in common is that they all belong to the French musical heritage. Through them, we've witnessed the evolution of chanson à texte, moving over the years from pop and ballads to variété. They played with words, disrupted established codes and invented new sounds. They left their mark on French chanson, and that deserves a jam hosted by François Constantin! With Guillaume Farley on bass and vocals, you'll want to sing, dance and smile, because he's one of those musicians who gives everyone a banana. Now a legendary rendezvous on Rue des Lombards and throughout Paris, the Monday night jams guarantee good humor, discoveries and reunions. A must at Baiser Salé!

A one-hour concert that sets the tone, then it's time for the JAM!
