Vence - Les Négresses Vertes

Since more than 20 years Vence hosts the festival "Nuits du Sud". Vence is a wonderful village in the hills between Nice and Antibes. The summernights there are warm and with the music they are really magic.

"Les Négresses Vertes" is a French music group, founded in the 1980s, mixing North African and South American music with rock, punk and even French guinguette music to a very unique style. The music is very energetic and the French audience fell into euphoria. "Les Négresses Vertes" are a very French phenomenon, similar to the "Massilia Sound System" a group I saw some years ago. Even if I did not understand the words, it was great to listen!
