Lisa Simone

As part of the Longjumeau Jazz Festival

The international voice star, soul and jazz.

Nina Simone's daughter, Lisa had a singular trajectory. Balloted from one continent to another in her childhood, she leaves the maternal orbit to join the US Air Force. Veteran of the war in Iraq, she bifurcates and finds herself accompanying the Spanish-speaking Raphael star around the world for a few years. Recognition in the United States will come a little later with the flagship band of the current acid-jazz Liquid Soul. It's on Broadway that the one who calls herself Simone is taking off. She quickly climbed the ladder. Engaged as a singer, her performances convince the productions to offer him the leading roles (Rent, Aïda, The Lion King ...). She reached the consecration and was awarded the National Broadway Theater Award (Best Actress in a musical). After the death of her mother and back in France, Simone becomes Lisa Simone and cross the road of Hervé Samb in early 2014. Then begins a beautiful musical history between them.
