On Thursday, I'll be at the charming Cafe Montmartre listening to Benedicte--she's working with a new guitarist, Nelson Ferreira-Neto, who I'm interested in checking out. [10 euros, 9pm, to reserve call 06.07.95.47.91...though just showing up with no ahead-of-time planning is fine!]
Earlier on Thursday, RTL is recording a concert with Quebecois singer Terez Montcalm...she'll be at the RTL studio (22 rue Bayard, metro Franklin D) at 6:30 tomorrow--call RTL by dialling "3210" on your phone & reserve yourself a free ticket. (She'll be featured on Jean-Yves Chaperon's radio show on May 20th.)
Friday, I'm thinking of dropping by the Franc Pinot--Australian singer Wendy Lee Taylor will be there (she sings nightly at the Lido, but there are fewer feathers at the Franc Pinot) and after the first set there, I'll go to the Swan bar in Montparnasse, because livewire Manda Djinn is singing with her trio...and I always have a good time with that (165 blvd de Montparnasse)
Saturday, there's the musical bus...yup, the St-Germain-des-P festival is sponsoring a trio to drive around the 'hood on a 1950s Paris bus (you know...the kind with the back balcony where you can smoke & pretend you're in a Jean-Luc Godard movie). Bus leaves at 3:30pm from in front of St-Sulpice Church & it's free. If the weather's halfway decent, I'm going to be on it. And at night, I'll be at Sunside.
On Monday, the Laurent de Wilde trio with invited guests Malia (a wonderful jazzy pop singer) and intelligent rapper Abd Al Malik are at the Amphithéâtre Richelieu of the Sorbonne (visit this website for details; tix are 32 euros) Should be an interesting combination--I swear I heard Malia's "Paul Smith Shoes" song in Monoprix the other day... (by the way, the Richelieu room is small, so arrive early)
