Nebraska Jones + La Kombinaison + Kompa Doudou Cheri

Nebraska Jones

Nebraska Jones, a duo of multi-instrumentalist musicians, open the Guinguette ball with a set inspired by American folk songs. And exceptionally, for a song or two, they'll be joined by a group of hip-hop-loving teenagers from MJC Parmentier. A guaranteed surprise for this project, which began in April, where a succession of writing sessions and rehearsals re-orchestrate the original tracks, integrating the flow of two rappers as well as an extra guitar, drums and keyboard. Through the practice of music, this small, heterogeneous group tames itself to propose an unexpected aesthetic mix, where the familiar notes of American folk mingle with the vibrant energy of urban hip-hop.

This "augmented concert" project was made possible thanks to the Fonds d'encouragement aux initiatives artistiques et culturelles des amateurs supported by the French Ministry of Culture.
