The Jamboree, at the Grec 2017

Flamenco jazz, funk and soul, gypsy, pop-soul. You will find all this and more in the programme that a jazz club with a history stretching back more than 50 years has prepared for the 2017 Grec Festival in Barcelona.

Swing is in fashion and groups from the new generation like Saphie Wells & The Swing Cats are the proof of it. Born in Peru and launched musically from El Taller de Músics in Barcelona, Saphie Wells is one of the most versatile and seductive new voices on the country’s jazz scene. She passed through the Jamboree as the vocalist of the jazz-reggae group The Oldians, but now she appears with her most personal proposal, evoking the jazz of the 1930s and 40s and remembering singers and composers like Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Duke Ellington, George Gershwin and even Chet Baker.
