About Light Blues – professional Blues & Jazz band based in Toulouse, France
Light Blues is a quartet that invites you to wander and drift down the history of Mississippi.
This band, formed by four multi-instrumentalists, aims to explore the various styles of blues.
The performance focuses on Work Songs and Gospel, with challenging stops ranging from Swing to Rock & Roll.
The dance begins with four voices, followed by tuba and double bass waltzing through New Orleans and Swing homage.
Light Blues are regularly booked to perform for weddings and events at Château De Sibra in Lagarde, France.
The singer's warm and dynamic voice connects Louis Armstrong, Elvis Presley and the Golden Gate Quartet.
The pianist's showcase the richness of cross-cultural music with improvised solos, while the snare drum adds vitality to the overall performance.
In 2013, these four artists met at Music'Halle, the School of Lively Musics, in Toulouse. Something was brewing…
Choose a pianist from Marciac and the Wec family. Recruited a double bassist from the Power Manouche of Turbo Niglo Trio. Combine a drummer from Normandy with the New-Orleans Groove of the Fanflures Brass Band, followed by a vocalist who is a spiritual heir to Little Richard and Etta James.
You get Light Blues that will carry you away back in time.
Light Blues can also add sax, trumpet and/or guitar to their main lineup.

"Light Blues is a fantastic band with lovely members. We really appreciated the great communication beforehand and the amazing energy during their performance. They played the song for our first dance and learned the exact version we asked for! They were attentive to our wishes, flexible, great communicators, and a lot of fun. And of course, Violette has an incredible voice! We can highly recommend them!"
