A piano and a powerful yet subtle voice embodied by a dancer.
Martin and Jelila bring you on a voyage where time is suspended and worries are left aside as you will be absorbed by the presence and the mesmerising energy of this duo. It is true that less is more, especially when stage experience has become like a refined wine through time. Get ready to revisit old jazz standards with both efficient simplicity and depth and get ready to receive a sweet caress on your soul.

Martin Eigenmann ( piano )
Jelila is a self-made Swiss Tunisian singer, song-writer, composer and musician. She started performing during 6 years in the Parisian corridors of the metro ( underground ) from 2007 to 2013 and then started traveling around the world since 2013 as a troubadour, thirsty of discoveries, sharing, love and freedom. Initially graduated in dance, sport sciences and english, she chose to follow her heart and jump into the so attractive and inspiring unknown that music was offering her. To her, music is the universal language of love that goes past all mental fences and thus connects humans beyond their apparent differences toward the union of their similarities which is seeking love, peace and joy.
