Paris Combo April 26, 2013

"The coolest sounds on either side of the Atlantic."
- Billboard

Paris Combo celebrates a rich diversity of world styles but in the setting of chic Parisian cabaret. Fronted by chanteuse, songwriter, and accordionist Belle du Berry, Paris Combo has found a jazzy and intriguing twist on the French song-book tradition.

The jazz-influenced Paris Combo first formed in 1995 and has gained popularity in Europe, Australia, Asia, and the United States, with a succession of increasingly well-received CD releases. The French-based acoustic combo has struck a positive chord with critics and audiences for their fun-loving mix of jazz, French pop, cabaret, gypsy, Latino, and Middle Eastern rhythms. Fronted by the smoky vocals of chanteuse Belle du Berry, the group now includes Australian David Lewis on piano and trumpet, Django-influenced guitarist Potzi, and French drummer Francois Jeannin.

Paris Combo have sold over 500,000 albums world-wide and have made 15 tours in the USA, as well as extensive touring in France, Australia and Asia. After a 5-year break they are back and kicked off their Autumn tour with 3 concerts at the Hollywood Bowl.
