Juana Molina appears with her trio.

The songs are performed surprisingly close to the album versions.
But the give it a real drive. Actually pretty danceable.

One encore was solo.

She had a few problems with the monitors not working, but she handled it well. Actually Molina and the two guys got their machinery (devices and instruments) under controll.

Highly recommended! everyone gotta become a fan after witnessing her.

Ah oui Cecile Wikipedia explains it all! "The name comes from ciuppin, a word in the Ligurian dialect of the port city of Genoa, meaning "to chop" or "chopped" which described the process of making the stew by chopping up various 'left overs' of the day's catch.[1] Ciuppin is also a classic soup of Genoa, similar in flavor to cioppino, with less tomato, and the seafood cooked to the point that it falls apart."
