Swing Shine (上海香颂) have such a cool concept: GypsyJazz/Pop with Chinese lyrics. Shanghai-Paris combination of Lin Di (from Cold Fairyland) on vocal & pipa, Jeremy Lasry on guitar & bass, and Etienne Jeanne on guitar. 

UPDATE: kanzi58 noted: this is Charles Trenet in Chinese!

Here’s a shot of them from opening for Emilie Simon at QSW in Shanghai:

Interview : Lin Di

————————

The French music publication Kochipan interviewed Lin Di and Jeremy Lasry from Cold Fairyland & Swing Shine (上海香颂).
The link above is for the Lin Di interview; read the Jeremy Lasry interview HERE.
Topics include how they started working together, how difficult it is to get people in China to pay attention to music once they have become ‘apartment slaves’. (that part was quite depressing, actually)
Lin Di talks about the long time it took to release The Gossypium Era. There are links and videos in both interviews. =)

Really nice write-up about Swing Shine (上海香颂), with bandcamp audio embedded in the review. A beautiful concept, combining Chinese vocal & pipa with the French ‘gypsy jazz’ style. =D
