"Simply the best Gypsy band in the land! (SMH)." Monsieur Camembert have received standing ovations around the globe, from the Montreux Jazz Festival to the International Leonard Cohen Festival! "A brazen & intoxicating blend of jazz, Gypsy Swing, Latin & East European influences—bring your Cossack boots & prepare to dance (The Age)."
With sensitivity, virtuosity, & extraordinary energy, Triple ARIA Award-winning band Monsieur Camembert brilliantly weaves Gypsy music with other World Music styles, to create a truly original and intoxicating blend. From Russian Gypsy songs, to tango & klezmer, from Gypsy swing to Latin grooves, "…they pick you up & carry you on a wave of energy, excitement & poignancy that never relents…the band play with such cohesion, energy & abandon that I experienced an emotion so foreign I barely recognised it: elation. (John Shand, SMH)"
