Dynamo Banlieu Blues Big Band

Here's a trip out to Pantin (just beyond the walls of Paris) for an improvising big band that's part of the Banlieu Bleus festival - the Supernatural Orchestra - (click here to check them out)



and here's a map to the wonderful new performance space that is the Dynamo.

I'll let their sound speak for itself - quirky, fun, pulling in influences from all over the place.

closest metro 'Pantin' - a 20 minute ride from the centre of town.
