Los Angeles-based chanteuse/songwriter Jessica Fichot is a lot like her hometown of Paris: French at heart, but with a soul that's truly international. Drawing from her multi-ethnic French / Chinese / American upbringing, her music fuses styles and languages, taking the listener on a twisting journey out of the French chanson tradition, into the lands of gypsy jazz, Chinese 1940's swing, Latin American folk music, and into the wilderness of her imagination.
Following the acclaimed release of her debut album “Le Cheminâ€, she has performed packed venues in France, China, Spain, Mexico, Canada and across the U.S. After the release of her second album "Le Secret" (June 2012), she has been on tour through the U.S. and Europe backed by her fiery band (clarinet/sax, upright bass, drums and guitar), and armed with her accordion, toy piano and multilingual vocals.
Performing with Santa Cruz's high-energy septet "Flor de Cana"!
