Sauce Piquante
Exploring the exciting and hot sounds of America – and beyond!
The name “Sauce Piquante” is a nod to the spicy Louisiana dish that blends many influences—African, French, Spanish, and Caribbean. Through this lens, Arthur explores the music he loves: Blues, Jazz, Gospel, R&B, Creole, and Zydeco, as well as Afrobeat and Latin music, tracing how all of it has shaped the most exciting sounds of yesterday and today.
