Description: | *** JELLO MARTINI LOUNGE WELCOMES BACK FLORENCE T *** Hot off the heels of her debut album launch last December, Florence T has been “Baking Beats” and racing like a fireball around the city, busy like a bumble bee, making waves in the local electronica music circuit. Back at Jello once again, Florence will perform a set of upbeat dance tracks off her latest release, as well as a series of new tracks off her next album. So get ready, Montreal, cause this diva promises an electrifying performance! Florence joins forces with Daphné Cattellat for the first time for a double-header. Performing individual sets, Daphné's smoky, sultry cabaret retro jazz will pave the way for Florence's intense, high energy, electro-tinged house adventure, alongside seasoned musicians for a meatier, groovier organic set. DJ Sarcastic will mane the decks for a complementary, eclectic set that will surely keep the room warm and hit everyone’s sweet spot. A night filled with live music that you DON'T want to miss. ABOUT FLORENCE T: Florence T’s love affair with music began in the 1990’s when she started out as an amateur DJ, spinning music at private parties. Before long, she began singing vocals during her sets and discovered a new passion for singing. She developed her vocal skills by joining a choir and after many years of dedication to her craft, she co-wrote, produced and remixed a collection of her own songs. Inspired by performers such as Lisa Stansfield, La India, Lady Miss Kier, Barbara Tucker and Grace Jones, she pushed herself to develop a unique vocal style: a groovy mezzo-soprano with inflections of soulful house. At other times, she can mesmerize you with a breezy spoken-word voice. “I like to blend my vocal style with pretty much any genre as long as it sounds good,” says Florence T. In December 2010, Florence T launched her debut album, “Baking Beats” at Café Sarajevo in Montreal. Baking Beats showcases her vocal range as she effortlessly flows between joy and melancholy with an infusion of funky beats, rolling basslines and melodic keyboards. Since 2008, she has performed at Segafredo’s, Club Cherry, Viva Lounge, Club MAA and Jello Bar alongside Montreal’s local DJ talent including Steven Caicedo, Marvi Arlik, Tazz, Danika Bass, Elizia, Levon & Eli, Kobal and DJ Rochelle. For Florence T, her musical journey is just beginning. With plans to launch a promotional tour and get back in the studio to work on new projects, Florence T’s sparkling charisma, creative vision and unstoppable drive will surely give us more fun-filled romps in the future. “Art is meant to be shared. Some may like it, some won’t; art is not meant to be perfect. It’s meant to make people feel something and people can feel it when it comes from the heart.” WEBSITE: --------- ► [ www.wix.com ] ABOUT DAPHNÉ CATTELLAT: Having spent most of her youth traveling between Europe and North America, Daphné Cattellat from Montreal is a singer-songwriter of corsican and mexican origin, raised in a musical family environment. A self-taught, multidisciplinarian (song, dance and writing), she began her career at the age of 18 at the Jazz and Music Festival in France alongside her mother. Starting off as a choir member, she quickly took on the career of a soloist in the local Montreal scene, singing at corporate events, marriages, private functions and various jazz bars (Dièse Onze Jazz Club, Jello Martini Lounge, Café Sarajevo….) Over the course of the last 10 years, Daphné found her signature style through her unique pop, r&b and house renditions, and most recently, in jazz, where she has found her true calling. A series of live shows have enabled Daphné to hone her skills and acquire solid experience as a singer as well as a performer. Propelling you right into the heart of its universe, Daphné’s hot, enchanting voice offers a perfect blend to jazz. Her sensuality, genuine interpretations and breathtaking charisma will most certainly leave you spellbound…. WEBSITE: --------- [ www.wix.com ] Florence T live at Jello Martini Lounge feat.
