For more than 20 years, guitarist Christine Tassan has been leading her boat with brilliance, aplomb and an absolutely contagious dynamism. One of the few female jazz and gypsy jazz guitar soloists, she stands out for her sensitive playing, quiet strength and irresistible audacity. Also a singer, composer, author, director and producer, she participates in numerous musical projects in Quebec and on the international scene, both as a leader and as a guest musician (notably with the Lost Fingers, Paul Kunigis, Le trio Martin Bellemare and Canto Tango).

Trained in classical guitar, she is interested in many styles, studying folk, pop, jazz and developing her talent as a singer-songwriter at a very young age. Her interest in gypsy jazz, jazz and improvisation really began with her discovery of the music of Django Reinhardt in 1998, a style she learned by participating in master classes, such as Angelo Debarre, Emmanuel Kassimo or Yorgui Loeffler.

In 2003, she founded her gypsy jazz and swing song group, Christine Tassan et les Imposteures, which was immediately a great success and became a staple of the gypsy scene. Unique in its kind, this female ensemble performs in more than 600 festivals and venues in Quebec, Canada, Europe, the United States and China, each time receiving an enthusiastic reception from the public and the media. He can be found at the Festival International de Jazz de Montréal, the prestigious Django Reinhardt Festival in Samois-sur-Seine (France) and the DjangoFest NorthWest (USA). The quartet has seven albums to its credit, including “Entre Félix et Django” which won the Opus Prize for “Jazz Album of the Year” in 2017 and a nomination for “Show of the Year” in 2018. The latest “Django Belles”, released in 2018, integrates two new brass musicians, for an original ode to the Quebec winter.

Always in search of new horizons, Christine studied jazz composition and arrangement at Berklee College of Music (2014). In 2020, in parallel with Les Imposteures, she arrived with this new quintet project, “Voyage intérieur”, which brings together ten instrumental compositions, the result of introspective musical research. We discover a new facet of the guitarist, with electric and bebop sounds. This album is nominated in 2021-2022 in the Jazz Album of the Year category at the Juno Awards, the ADISQ, the Opus Awards and the GAMIQ!
