The Amy Whinehouse band will be on the main stage at Jazz au Phare, opening for The Blues Queens.
In 2011, Amy Whinehouse entered the infamous 27 club and the world lost an unparalleled soul and jazz diva. Ten years later, her musicians have decided to move on and resurrect what many consider to be the greatest artist of her generation. It is a crazy project and a unique show brought to life by Dale Davis, the singer's musical director, bassist and lifelong friend. An evening of jazz groove from another planet. And a singer, Bronte Shande, who carries on the legacy with strength and elegance, coming as close as possible to an artist who left her mark on her time.

OPENING ACT: THE BLUES QUEENS
Leslie Lewis and Ronald Baker delighted us with their respective appearances in previous editions. Now they're back together for a sensitive tribute to the Blues Queens, the queens of the blues who launched the success of Afro-American music at the beginning of the last century. Their names include Bessie Smith, Ida Cox and Billie Holiday, as well as Dinah Washington and LaVern Baker. Their success has never waned, and their influence can still be heard in contemporary soul singers. A celebration full of joy, emotion and swing.
