ZAZ IN CONCERT:
French jazz-pop chanteuse Zaz has been serving up her fresh-faced take on Gallic musical traditions ever since her 2010 debut. In concert, her optimistic lyrics, buoyant voice, and penchant for scat singing make for a decidedly festive experience, and feel-good hits like "Je Veux" only add to the fun. Zaz delighted fans on tour in support of sophomore album Recto Verso in 2013, with more appearances scheduled for 2014.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Born in Tours, France, Zaz studied music in her childhood before earning a scholarship to attend music conservatory in Bordeaux. Singing in various jazz and blues outfits during the '00s, she developed a style as unique as it is indebted to legendary singers like Ella Fitzgerald and Edith Piaf. Her self-titled 2010 debut album was a huge success, topping charts throughout Europe on the strength of infectious singles like "Je Veux" and leading to an international tour. 2013 follow-up Recto Verso was a similar success, going double platinum and bringing Zaz back on the road for more tour dates in 2014.

Very generous, more then 20 songs from all her repertoire. Wow, wow, and wow again. We came from Montreal especially to see her. It was the second show we saw from her. Her first one at her beginning and this one. You must see her live. We had a wonderful night.
I started listening to French musicians to improve my French language skills. My French hasn't really improved much, but my admiration for this great vocalist has. Her amazing voice transcends language and impresses upon the listener a feeling of genuineness and a connection to the human condition. I may not be proficient in French, but more importantly, I discovered this great performer. In any language, she is Super.
Great place for a show the acoustics were wonderful and Zaz was amazing. The place is small so I don't think there is a bad seat in the house. A great place for a show and this was a great show in a great theater.
This would be 5 stars if the extremely bad sound system had not garbled her absolutely charming vocals.
excellent musicians, but not so good singer, though s very energetic
Artist does not speak enough of the English language and everything she says in between songs it is lost to those of us that don't understand French. She needs to have a big board displayed on the background translating simultaneously as she speaks!!!
Serious but easy entry procedure. Excellent acoustic. Comfortable seating. Amazing all ages audience. Presence of large cultural backgrounds. Fantastic musicians. Gaz in good form. All went well...
Very very good! She has an incredible and unique voice, a great stage presence and she is surrounded with fantastic musicians. Merci beaucoup !
I attent Zaz concert couple days ago. Great venue, very good sound, perfect performance.
Very talented singer, great voice, showed that she is capable of handling all sorts of music styles. However, her popular songs were excluded from the program. That was disappointing.
