Florence Joelle's Kiss Of Fire

This London, UK band brings together blues / jazz chanteuse, w/ exotica & beat poetry, Florence Joelle, composer / filmmaker Chris Campion (bass), film director Arthur Lager (drums & percussion) & songwriter Huck Whitney (guitars). They have developed our own style, merging tunes from the '40’s (such as Chick Webb & Ella Fitzgerald's When I Get Low, I Get High), to the ‘60’s (like Mel Tormé's Comin' Home Baby), w Florence Joelle’s own unique songwriting style. While their inspiration may come from the past, the fusion of their disparate influences creates a sound that is unique.
