Swiss-born and New York-based guitarist, singer and songwriter Eliane Amherd has made a career out of traveling the world, literally and stylistically. Jazz, Latin and Brazilian rhythms inform Eliane’s stylish, sophisticated global-pop sound. In La Dégustation, her inspirations remain international, but as a songwriter, she turns her lens to her home soil: the complex and diverse terroirs of the canton Valais in Switzerland, where wine is business, culture, science, and (nearly) religion. Each of La Dégustation’s tracks is named for a wine produced in her home region. Intoxicating and socially unifying, wine provides the focus for Eliane’s witty explorations of culture, gender, love, politics, history and art.
Enjoy this musical wine tasting coupled with Swiss artist Pauline Lugon’s beautiful Illustrations. SANTÉ!
