LA CHANSON DE JEAN
Ô, Nuit lente,
dépêche-toi
Vas-y vas-y vers l’aube
je t'en prie, mon amour m'attend
Souffle, souffle, Vent
bon et fort
Gonfle les voiles sans cesse
je t'en prie, jusqu'a qu’on y arrive
Océan, porte moi
vite à travers tes ondes
Emmène-moi à celle que j'aime qui est tellement si loin!
Volez, volez, les Mouettes
au milieu des nuages
Dirigez-vous vers la côte
et dites-lui que je viens, je viens
Océan, porte moi
vite à travers tes ondes
Emmène-moi à celle que j'aime qui est tellement si loin!

The Mad Maggies play genre fluid, mostly original, mostly danceable music with a dash of hot pepper and a swig of
slivovitz -- they kick up some dust.
They are available to play private parties, large festivals & everything else in between.

Accordion Crumbs

Rebecca Richman
by Rebecca RichmanSoul-filled fiddling by an elusive, super-talented artist. This is great "trad" with tasteful guitar and keyboard accompaniment. "Sunday River Waltz" will make you teary-eyed.

Kingshat Soul Serenade
