About this event
Fresh from their UK tour, Parisian Chanteuse and accordionist Fifi La Mer will be appearing with her collaborator, Oliver Wilby, who will be joining her on the tenor saxophone, clarinet and piano accordion for their exciting live performance.
Shut your eyes and you will be transported to Paris where you will hear a selection of French music including works from Edith Piaf, Charles Trenet, Django Reinhardt and Serge Gainsbourg. Along the way you will hear tales of life in Paris throughout the golden era of French music. You will listen to a slice of their French repertoire spanning a century.
Brace yourself for an exciting and charismatic performance.
Fifi and Oliver have been touring the country with their unique show. You may have seen them with their quintet “Oh la la” who have recently appeared at their sell-out show at Ronnie Scott’s and Theatres and Arts centres across the country. Oliver regularly performs with the Pasadena Roof Orchestra, Syd Lawrence Orchestra and the BBC Big Band.
