“Simply the best Gypsy band in the land!” (Sydney Morning Herald)

“A brazen and intoxicating blend of jazz, Gypsy Swing, Latin and East European influences – bring your Cossack boots and prepare to dance” (The Age)

With sensitivity, virtuosity, and extraordinary energy, Triple ARIA Award-winning 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 and klezmer, from Gypsy swing to Latin grooves... "they pick you up and carry you on a wave of energy, excitement and poignancy that never relents…the band play with such cohesion, energy and abandon that I experienced an emotion so foreign I barely recognised it: elation” (John Shand, Sydney Morning Herald).

Monsieur Camembert have received standing ovations around the globe, from the Montreux Jazz Festival to the International Leonard Cohen Festival. Come find out why!
