About this episode
FRANCE JOLI
In this episode of Turn The Beat Around, we dive into the extraordinary rise of France Joli — the French‑Canadian prodigy who became a disco legend at just sixteen. From her early days performing across Montreal to the night that changed everything on Fire Island, we trace the story behind Come To Me, the song that crowned her a queer‑club icon overnight. It’s a celebration of the teen who became a global dancefloor queen — and a tribute to one of disco’s most magical origin stories.
