Cécile Savage plays and sings who she is:
a blend of French Cabaret and American Jazz. Born in Martinique, raised in Paris, she lived in New York City and perfected her art in Chicago. She combines all musical elements in a style which is truly her own.
As a freelance bassist (electric and acoustic) she has traveled across the United States, Europe and Africa. She performed at the Chicago Blues and Jazz Festivals. She played the Blues with Sugar Blue, Memphis Slim, and Willie Mabon. She played Jazz with Von Freeman, Franz Jackson, Floyd McDaniel, George Freeman, Oscar Brown, Jr., Redd Holt and many more. She now leads her own group, adding her mellow voice and her own compositions to the repertoire.
The group Komango co-led with pianist Calvin Koco Brunson features new interpretation of standard tunes as well as new compositions by Cécile and Calvin.
Her Music Reflects Her Many Influences:
French lyricism, bluesy melodies and passion, and her own jazz compositions with Brazilian overtones.
