With over twenty years of bringing their special blend of Gypsy jazz and revisited cover songs to audiences, Christine Tassan et les Imposteures have made a name for themselves on the music scene.
Pioneers in a domain usually reserved for men and precursors of the gypsy wave that swept across Québec, this quartet led by guitarist Christine Tassan continues to reinvent this timeless music while integrating new ideas and influences with an originality and flair we have become familiar with. From standards to original compositions, the Imposteures’ musical arrangements innovate, rejuvenate and leave room for unbridled creativity from four talented and accomplished musicians.
With 7 albums and more than 700 concerts in various venues and festivals, including numerous appearances in major events and tours across Canada, Europe, USA and China, they have cultivated the adoration and loyalty of an ever growing fan base. We have had the chance to see them at the Montreal International Jazz Festival, at the Django Reinhardt Festival in Samois-sur-Seine (France), at hte Liberchies Django Festival (Belgium) and at the North-West Django Fest (USA). Their album “Entre Félix et Django” received the Opus Award for Jazz Album of the Year in 2017 and was nominated in the Show of the Year category in 2018. Since 2020, the group has been presenting a Christmas show titled “Django Belles,” which has become an annual tradition.
In 2023, the group offers an entirely new show titled “On the Road”, retracing 20 years of tours and adventures! The album was released in February 2024.
