Chassol

Show & Culture

"Funny How?", the fifth album by Christophe Chassol, continues his "Ultrascores" while marking a shift toward a more contemporary sound and a more political message. Inspired by American stand-up, the album blends soul, jazz, rap, and musical comedy, and brings together voices of figures such as Dave Chappelle and Dulcé Sloan with those of emerging comedians. Using archives and footage shot in New York and Chicago, Chassol harmonizes reality to reveal hidden notes and compose a choral, musical, and engaged narrative. Between documentary, album, and live performance, Funny How? is a vibrant tribute to the comic and musical power of words.
