BlueNefertiti’s vocal styling is founded in the eloquence of Edith Piaf, Miriam Makeba, Abbey Lincoln, and Minnie Ripperton; the sophistication of Joao Gilberto; and the vocal landscaping of Bobby McFerrin.
She began singing professionally with her older sister in France during the mid 1990's; later forming the internationally renowned singing duo Les Nubians. After 10 years in the business, a myriad of encounters, recordings and awards, she is now outwardly expressing her inner workings... a cabaret style performance project aptly named Paris@Night.
With her sensual stage presence she lures you into her world of experimental frequencies… Electronic, Dub, Soul, House, Hip Hop, and then… with the sparkle in her eye… she subtly invites you to sink into your seats and travel through time and space to the great era of Jazz standards and French Realism.
The show is an unconventional mélange of ingenious originals and innovative renditions of Edith Piaf, Josephine Baker, Miriam Makeba, Nina Simone, Dave Brubeck... an exhilarating soundtrack to her narrative love triangle with Africa, Paris and New York City.
