Drawing from her multi-ethnic French \/ Chinese \/ American upbringing, her music takes the listener on a twisting journey out of the French chanson tradition, into the land of 1940&#8217;s Shanghai jazz, gypsy swing, international folk, and into the wilderness of her imagination.<\/p>\n<p>With 3 acclaimed albums under her belt, Jessica has charmed audiences around the world \u2013 performing her lively songs at concert halls, festivals and clubs in China, Mexico, Canada and across the US and western Europe. Featuring scorching performances from her bandmates on clarinet\/sax, upright bass and guitar, as well as her own beautiful, clear vocals in French, Mandarin Chinese, Spanish and English, Fichot\u2019s music is truly a dazzling trans-world journey.<\/p>\n<p>Fichot is also an active composer, who has written hundreds of children\u2019s songs for various educational programs, as well as music for many independent video games. She is currently working on a new album, slated for an early 2020 release.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBrings an art-song sensibility to delightfully catchy tunes.\u201d \u2013 LA Times<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEnchantingly original.\u201d &#8211; LA Weekly<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA delicious blend of acoustic styles\u201d \u2013 San Francisco Chronicle<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA m\u00e9lange of multicultural inspiration as rich and nuanced as her gorgeous expressive singing voice.\u201d \u2013 Seven Days Vermont<\/p>\n<p>Contacts: <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Publicity: Carl Hanni at Mod Media, 520-622-6313, carlhanni@gmail.com\u2028<br \/>\n&#8211; Artist: Jessica Fichot, 213-842-9992, jessica@jessicasongs.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Coming Live, from Los Angeles JESSICA FICHOT Accompanied by her accordion, toy piano, and fiery band, Los Angeles-based chanteuse and songwriter Jessica Fichot draws from her multi-ethnic French \/ Chinese \/ American heritage to create an intoxicating multilingual fusion of French chanson, 1940s Shanghai jazz, gypsy swing and international folk.
