Our CD The Beatles Close-Up is now completely sold out online.
The good news: we still have a few final copies available at our concerts at the merch stand — but only while supplies last.
The album is NOT available on Spotify, but it is still available on vinyl. The vinyl also includes an MP3 download code, so you can easily listen to the recordings digitally as well: vinyl for the shelf, music for on the go.
The living room concerts we’ve played so far have been truly special for us — intimate, intense, and full of beautiful moments.
A big thank you to all the wonderful hosts and guests! 💛
This year, we’re looking forward to visiting some of your living rooms again.
If you’d like to host a living room concert, feel free to get in touch with us anytime.

Juliette Brousset
Even at the most lofty of heights, Juliette’s crystal-clear soprano is breezy and subtle, adding an amazing brilliance to the sound of Les Brünettes. The French singer writes her own chansons and jazz numbers, presenting them with irresistible charm.
Born in Alsace, Juliette grew up in a musical family who played, sung and listened to classical music, jazz and, of course, chansons. It comes as no surprise then that Juliette’s style is a blend of all of these influences. Her voice combines the levity and imagination of a Marilyn Monroe with the depth of a Sarah Vaughan. Her pieces are soundscapes involving complex harmonies and rhythms and her lyrics are tinged with a hint of wistful nostalgia.
Juliette studied acting and dramaturgy at the École Nationale de Musique, Danse et Théâtre Mulhouse. In 2012, she obtained a bachelor degree in Jazz Vocals from the Mannheim University of Music and Performing Arts and in 2014 a master degree from the University of Music Franz Liszt Weimar.
From 2008 to 2022, Juliette Brousset was the frontwoman of the French swing-chanson band Moi et les autres. She now performs in a French chanson duo with guitarist Georg Bauss. Juliette is regularly invited by major orchestras – including the Mannheimer Bläserphilharmonie, Audi Bläserphilharmonie, Audi Big Band, Kicks’n’Sticks Big Band Mannheim, and the Stadtorchester Villingen – to perform as a soloist with her own chanson and jazz arrangements.

Stephanie Neigel
Stephanie, the all-rounder among Les Brünettes, has a velvety voice that is equally at home in the bass range and lead soprano. Sometimes humorous, sometimes reflective, her compositions cover an equally diverse range.
Someone was always singing in Stephanie’s family: When she was small, her mother sang her good-night songs in bed. They visited many concerts early on when she was still young. Emulating Whitney Houston, one of the greatest voices of our times, Stephanie never stopped singing and started discovering the world through her own songs while sitting at her parents’ piano. Stephanie captures fresh musical impressions, encounters and beautiful words that melt on the tongue, transforms them and brings them to life in her music.
She received her bachelor degree from the Mannheim University of Music and Performing Arts and her master degree from the University of Music Franz Liszt Weimar.
Stephanie is the leader of Stephanie Neigel & Band and she has released 3 solo Albums up to now. In 2022 she released the very art-pop like duo Album “Phalleé & Baldu” with her colleague and virtuoso drummer Tommy Baldu. Her duo “Neigelböhlen” performed musical versions of poems. As well as being a popular ‘side-woman’ in bands such as the Paul Fox Collective from Luxembourg, Stephanie has played at the Sapporo Jazz Festival in Japan, has worked with Al Jarreau, the HR-Bigband, Dennis Mackrel, Edo Zanki and Tanita Tikaram, Söhne Mannheims and has played studio concerts for SR and SWR. In 2023 she was given the a cultural Prize of her home region in Rhineland-Palatinate. of Thanks to her extensive experience in the big-band world, both as a soloist and as an ensemble member, she works as a vocal coach and lecturer for different universities like University for Music Freiburg, Osnabrück, Cologne and recently University of Siegen.

Julia Pellegrini
The distinctive and sensitive vocals of Les Brünettes’ first Alto and Mezzosoprano add a bright transparency to the quartet’s sound. Her groovy songs are amazingly catchy and surprisingly complex at the same time.
With both her parents classical string players and her older brother a drummer, Julia was destined from birth to become a musician. She started off with classical piano, but preferred to listen to pop songs on the radio instead of practising her sonatas. The musical diversity surrounding her soon bore fruit: She took her inspiration from sources as varied as US songwriters such as James Taylor and Joni Mitchell, compositions by Kurt Weil, Ravel’s work and not least her own songs. The latter are an organic blend of the diverse influences of classical, pop and jazz, and include all the ingredients that go towards making a good song. In 2011, Julia received her master degree in jazz vocals from the Mannheim University of Music and Performing Arts where she had also completed her Bachelor degree two years previously. She has been employed as soloist by various big bands, orchestras and choirs (among them Erstes Akkordeonorchester Freiburg, Kammerchor Mannheim, Ansbacher
Kammerorchester), has been singing for years in various line-ups from jazz quintets to pop trios, has composed music for the a cappella beatbox textbook ‘beatbox your choir’ (Schott Verlag) and
has been a member of the panel of judges at Jugend Musiziert. On top of this, she has a teaching position in the field of pop and jazz vocal school music at the Mannheim University of Music and Performing Arts. In 2013, together with Sandy Patton, she substituted for Prof. Ann Malcolm, taking over her repertoire semester at the Mannheim University of Music and Performing Arts.

Lisa Herbolzheimer
Lisa’s smoky, exhilarating voice provides the solid foundation to the Brünettes sound. Her arrangements and compositions reflect her soul background.
Lisa grew up in thoroughly musical environment: As a child, she sang along with the songs on her dad’s extensive Beatles collection or watched musicals, such as High Society, with him until she could sing along with the entire soundtrack. Thanks to her grandfather Peter Herbolzheimer, the famous leader of renowned big bands, jazz was part of the family’s everyday life. Julia’s musical vocation thus ran in the family. Her powerful vocals reflect the role music plays in her life: it is both her life elixir and her life expression. She writes predominantly about things that move her, in the language she feels most at home in: German.
In June 2011, Lisa completed her studies in jazz vocals at the Mannheim University of Music and Performing Arts and received her master degree from the University of Music in Weimar in October 2012.
Lisa sang in a TV show for many years and has performed in a number of her own pop and jazz line-ups, both as lead singer and background singer. She has also sung with big bands and orchestras, most recently with Deutsches Filmorchester Babelsberg, and is a sought-after recording artist in the pop/jazz fields. On the ‘Manfred Krug – seine Lieder’ tribute album, which is coming out in 2017, she sings alongside artists such as Ulrich Tukur, Jan Josef Liefers and Jan Plewka.
