Close your eyes, you're in Paris...
Oh la la! mixes Parisian folk music (musette), impressionist music, French chanson with unforgettable 20’s upbeat to 50’s smooth jazz, film noir/nouvelle vague film music and the occasional rearranged cool 60’s French pop tune as well as original material from their upcoming album.
The dulcet tones of Parisian born Fifi la Mer's voice and the evocative sound of her accordion blended with the talents of Oliver Wilby on clarinet will take you straight back to that little café by the Eiffel tower, before the exuberance and beautiful sound of his saxophone they will transport you to that buzzy jazz club by Pigalle with the cool feel of Simon Picton on guitar and the groove of Julian Bury on double bass.
Oh la la! have performed over 1200 concerts during the past 10 years in venues up and down the country including Ronnie Scott's jazz club, Upstairs at Ronnie's, the Brasserie Zedel (Piccadilly), the Royal Opera House (Covent Garden), Wilton Music Hall, the National Theatre, St Martin in the fields, the Ignite, Elgar room and Cafe Verdi @ the Royal Albert hall. They have also played on the Orient Express, the Belle Vallee on the river Seine, at London fashion week at Somerset House, music festivals such as London City festival, Richmond world music festival, Bloomsbury festival, Old Gaffers, Royal Ascott and at the residence of the French ambassador in London.
A very entertaining, fun and romantic evening assured.
