Along the way you will hear tales of life in Paris throughout the golden era of French music from Offenbach to Gainsbourg.. You will listen to a slice of the French repertoire spanning a century; a performance of their unique arrangements.The show features the dulcet tones of Parisian born Fifi La Mer on accordion and voice, and the talents of Oliver on clarinet, members of the saxophone family, and accordion.
Together they will transport you to Paris with their repertoire of musical gems, and along the way you will get to enjoy tales of mystery, romance and heartache that we so often associate with the city of lights. Brace yourself for an exiting and charismatic performance.

You may have seen them with their quintet “Oh la la” .They have recently appeared at their sell-out shows at Ronnie Scott’s, Theatres and Arts centres across the country.
