Madeline Tasquin – Specialty: French Music Singer Guitarist from Oakland, CA

Bonjour! It would be my pleasure to provide professional, friendly, and deliciously musical performance to your event. I’m a versatile singer and multi-instrumentalist, accompanying my voice on jazz guitar, ukulele, and (for original music), the piano. I’m also a personable human and easy to work with along the way as we plan and prepare, and as your event comes to fruition. I’ve toured nationally and internationally, performing original music as well as jazz standards, French chanson and traditional North American folk music. I am equally comfortable performing solo, as part of a group, or leading a small ensemble. My specialties are: * French bistro / cafe jazz ???? * Jazz standards and romantic music ?? * “Jazzified” pop songs of all eras... ?? (?? Original music lovers… You can find my original music on YouTube, Spotify, etc by searching “Madeline Tasquin” ??) My voice has been compared to: * Edith Piaf * Joni Mitchell * Billie Holiday I'm happy to work to your vision of the desired atmosphere, sound/volume requirements, and your entertainment budget. For example, I can perform solo, or arrange for a tasty duo (myself, upright bass or soloist), trio (myself, upright bass, and soloist) or full ensemble (myself, bass, drums & solo guitarist/violinist/accordionist/saxophonist). You can be sure the music and performance you get when you hire me will respond to the atmosphere, the audience, the space and circumstances with the positivity, adaptability, professionality and creativity your event deserves. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions or to make special repertoire requests. I look forward to working with you! PLEASE NOTE: I am based in Berkeley, California but I travel to BC and the pacific northwest frequently. Don't hesitate to contact me if your event is not in the SF Bay Area! Merci bien ?? aMadeline
