ONLINE BROADCAST (Originally recorded JUL 26, 2018)

Original show description below

Delightfully cosmopolitan and seductively swinging, Paris Combo is as diverse and sophisticated as the city from which the band hails. Combining Gypsy swing with elements of flamenco, chanson and alt-cabaret, the quintet mixes in Latin and North African rhythms for good measure. Holding all the diverse elements together is the sprightly vocalist Belle du Berry, who’s joined by Australian trumpeter/keyboardist David Lewis, classical bassist Benoît Dunoyer de Segonzac, French drummer François Jeannin, and Potzi, an Algerian Gypsy guitarist whose virtuosic style and natty appearance recalls Django Reinhardt.

  • Belle du Berry -vocals
  • David Lewis – trumpet, piano
  • Potzi – guitar
  • Benoît Dunoyer de Segonzac – bass
  • François Jeannin – drums, vocals
  • Rémy Kaprielan – percussion, vocals, saxophone, keyboards
