BONJOUR MESDAMES & MESSIEURS

Benoit Viellefon is a French chanteur à la mode that is making a name for himself on the burlesque-vintage scene in England.
He created His Orchestra in London to perform the gorgeous ballroom dance music that was played in Europe, Cuba, Russia and the USA during the 1920's to the early 1950's. The orchestra, made of nothing but internationally renown musicians from France, Great Britain and Jamaica is rapidly establishing a fearsome reputation for its truly amazing live performance with dancers, lovers & listeners. An album is now on sale so ...get on the mailing list!

SOME REVIEWS:

"...swinging fast … an authentic wall of sound … romantic and distinctly Parisian angle …quite striking and perfect, it all felt rather filmic ...Latin/swing dexterity ...the rhythms were tight and hot. Benoit Viellefon and His Orchestra definitely reside within the cabaret
end of jazz but their combined individual skill almost makes them a crossover ensemble."
- Jeanie Barton - London Jazz

"...Benoit Viellefon, a 36-year-old musician who regularly attracts more than 250 dapper vintage enthusiasts to his midweek swing nights."
- Jane Mulkerrins. - The Times

"...Something very beautiful: Benoit Viellefon and his Orchestra combine French chanson, musette with swing. A very addictive mixture. "
- Nathan Nörgel - Wasser-Prada (Germany)

"...If you missed Benoit Viellefon’s festival show, you missed a treat. - We’d all be much happier if Benoit’s music was the soundtrack to our lives."
