Caroline Bugala/Thomas Fonnesbæk Trio

Wednesday den 9. September kl. 8:30 pm - 11:15 pm

Caroline Bugala started her career at La Fontaine with just two tunes during a jam session. By the time she stepped off the stage, the bartender had already called the owner of La Fontaine, demanding that she get a job there. Since then, she has been a cherished guest at the jazz joint. Tonight, she performs alongside another virtuoso, namely bassist Thomas Fonnesbæk.
