Ace Argentinian Cabaret nymph Damsel Talk returns to Jamboree with her band to play a set of glam noir and jazz, peppered with theatrics. During the course of the night they will play as both a duo and a quartet.

"Amy Winehouse crossed with Peggy Lee, conquering everything from jazz to tango" - Culture Trip

Inspired by the diva swing era of Anita O'Day and Eartha Kitt, and the choreographic scenes of Bob Fosse and the musical score of Cy Coleman in Sweet Charity, British born but Buenos Aires-based, Damsel Talk, aka Jenny Moule, uses gesture, costume and an elastic voice to narrate tales of lovers and thieves. Her set is steeped in stylised jazz and glam noir, with spiralling outbreaks of improvisation and crash, bang, wallop. Whispering, purring, squealing, there is raw freedom in her vocal improvisation and visual clowning which is intensified by her band - all prominent players in the young Argentinean jazz scene - who spiral into free jazz, echoing the sounds of a frenzied circus with Nicolas Boccanera on piano, George Richardson on double bass and a guest brass player. Tonight they will play as a duo for the first part, presenting a show of obsolete objects, theatrics and improvisation, and then as a jazz quartet, presenting a set of traditional jazz and swing tunes.
