Description

Updated with 7 new songs! French Café is a collection of classic and modern French music that will transport the listener to the romantic streets of Paris.

The music on French Café unites musicians of an earlier age with contemporary artists who draw on the sound of the past as inspiration to create a style that is both nostalgic and progressive. Includes a Tarte Tatin recipe.

Paris has long been an epicenter for café culture, and its countless cafes have always been magnets for bohemians, artists, poets, revolutionaries, laborers and musicians. Indeed, the history of French music is inextricably linked to the cafes and music halls where popular music styles like musette and chanson were originally performed.

In recent years, classic French styles that first became popular in the early part of the 20th Century have been experiencing a comeback. Some of the most popular musicians on the current French music scene have been drawing inspiration from chanson, musette, and gypsy jazz. Icons of French music like Django Reinhardt, Edith Piaf and Georges Brassens have been embraced by young French musicians who once disparaged their music as being of another era.
