The Pink Turtle's trademark is their ability to reproduce great pop hits such as "Billie Jean", "We Will Rock You", and "Black Magic Woman" in swing versions.
The highly acclaimed French band, which won the Prix de Public 2009, returns to JazzAscona with its strong sense of humor and a new program.
The album Back Again is the latest masterpiece of this tireless band which seems to have found the elixir of life. Having sold more than 20,000 albums in the past two years, this French band represents a quite unique case of sales success in the world of jazz.
