From the familiar to the exotic, Lua’s lush vocals have garnered the critics’ praise from Italy to New York to Los Angeles, and she “made the seats jump up and down” at San Francisco’s Empire Plush Room. Ever hear “Night & Day” in French with a funk beat? Lua speaks and sings in several languages; a versatile performer with class, humor, passion and power. Music director Jason Martineau is an award-winning pianist, composer and arranger, with an elegant touch for jazz.
