About Jet Black Pearl
Wild Accordion Diva
Hailing
from the Netherlands, accordion songstress Jet Black Pearl has performed in big
tops, prisons, living rooms, tunnels, garden sheds, barges, and ancient ruins
across the globe. She spent many years in France-long enough to earn a few
French songwriting awards (mais oui!)-before relocating to Portland. These days
she sings in English and French... always with a Dutch accent.
Smartly
wacky, her songs are a mad hatter's European party with a funky attitude. Using
a loop station, she builds grooves with flute, vocal percussion, and harmonies
while squeezing one hot accordion-creating a show that's as surprising as it is
captivating.
'A formidable force of music, and truly has to be seen to be
believed'
(Three Weeks, Edinburgh Fringe Festival).
