"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)"
