Based in New York, this sultry French-born singer, percussionist and fiery punk rock guitarist from the golden days of the American hardcore scene formed Frenchy and the Punk in 2005. Imagine Django Reinhardt, Dresden Dolls, Johnny Ramone, Siouxsie Sioux and Edith Piaf jamming at an event hosted by Deepak Chopra and Toulouse Lautrec. This is what it might sound like. In May 2012, Yahoo Music called them one of the top 25 duos in the U.S. With the guitarist's roots in the band Deep Wound with Dinosaur jr's J Mascis and Lou Barlow and the singer's European heritage, their show is a carnival of two that will take you from Paris to CBGBs and back again. A rollicking flapper folk punk cabaret with cleverly crafted songs, Taiko meets Rio de Janeiro pounding drum instrumentals, Steampunk flavor and true DIY spirit
