About

Angela LaFlamme is a throwback to a bygone era — with an edgy modern twist. Sepia toned. Think 1920’s film siren meets Tom Waits. Angela's love for not only storytelling, but creating a unique nostalgic vibe come from years of studying the tarnished elegance of Billie Holiday, the whimsical smirk of Fats Waller, and the full throttle kick of Screamin' Jay Hawkins.

From performing at an Oakland warehouse party to the sumptuous main stage of the Edwardian Ball or legendary rock venue Bottom of the Hill, to the top floor of the De Young Museum, Ms. LaFlamme is completely at home. Her dedication, sheer joy and passion in creating not just great music, but an unforgettable atmosphere are a thing to behold.

Music

Angela LaFlamme heads up a six-piece band from San Francisco that deftly re-imagines some of our favorite music from ’20s through the ’00s into her own swinging sound. Drawing on favorites from Billie Holiday to Tom Waits, the Cure to Count Basie, and also her own original material, this sextet embodies more than just a retro jukebox, it creates a memorable live show experience.
