Three repertoires, not a single wrong note

More than a jazz band…

A band at home in three repertoires: jazz for an intimate early-evening atmosphere, the livelier gypsy jazz (jazz manouche), and festive Gypsy music! We move between styles in real time, following the pace of your evening.

Our performance in detail

Cabaret Deluxe is a line-up of 3 to 7 musicians, all of them professionals, performing more than 100 jazz, gypsy jazz and Eastern European standards.

 

Our speciality: wedding drinks receptions, cocktail parties and receptions, from the moment your guests arrive until dinner. Explore our wedding & drinks reception offer →

 

We guarantee a flawless artistic performance. We have the expertise to take care of every technical aspect: a sound system tailored to your number of guests and the size of the venue you have chosen. We can also provide a sound engineer if needed.

 

Our quotes are detailed and comprehensive, and we offer several packages so that we can make the most of your budget and deliver the most memorable performance for you and your guests.

Our repertoire

We perform more than 100 jazz, gypsy jazz and Eastern European standards.

 

Our repertoire spans well-known hits in French and English (songs by Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, Charles Trenet…), gypsy jazz tunes composed or popularised by Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli, and traditional Russian Gypsy pieces, as well as Eastern European music more broadly (“à la Kusturica”…)

 

We adapt to the atmosphere of your event and follow it as the evening unfolds. A classic scenario, for instance, is “background music while guests arrive and during the cocktail reception, then a more upbeat finish”. We choose each piece in real time and sense exactly when to move from one style to the next.

 

You are also welcome to pick the pieces you would like to hear from our list.

 

A dedicated dance set is also possible (waltzes, Latin rhythms, slow dances, swing…)

Audio

To give you a taste of what we do, here are excerpts from our album “Cabaret Deluxe” (quartet, 2013) and our five-track EP “Swinging for dancers” (septet, 2020).

 

For clarity, we have grouped these excerpts by style.

 

During a typical performance, we usually play a blend of these styles, switching between them to suit the mood. You can of course favour a particular genre (with or without vocals, French songs only, Gypsy music only, etc.)
