about

"Fontella" is an ode, and recounting of the trials and tribulations of being a female singer, in this case the legend that is, Fontella Bass. Having had huge success at Chess Records in Chicago (the Windy City) things turned sour and she moved to Paris (the City of Light) with her husband - Lester Bowie - and worked with his band, the Art Ensemble of Chicago. There they made two seminal albums and enjoyed a very different life.
