Grégory Chauchat is a dynamic and elegant accordionist who will bring an original, authentic and unique atmosphere to your evening! If you are organising a private party, an concert at your venue or an event for your company, this musician will bring a lively touch to captivate and amaze your guests or clientele!
The accordion immediately suggests a popular, vintage and elegant side to an event, with Grégory being a musician who can play whilst strolling or being close-up and engaged with his audience. The accordion can be played both discreetly to offer a subtle ambience and equally, be sufficiently present without resorting to a sound system. When we think of an accordion, we often think of a very French, Parisian style and the classic Guinguette atmosphere! That said, other lesser-known styles will also be performed to also surprise the ears of your guests!
Also available to be booked as a group of 2, 3 or 4 musicians, Grégory Chauchat and his band will bring gypsy jazz and jazz swing styles and technique, lending itself very well to a multitude of performance situations! Gypsy jazz immediately suggests energetic, vintage rhythms and gives an elegant side to any event. The accordion, violin, guitar or the double bass are acoustic instruments that can ensure both a fun and lively concert or a hushed performance, without resorting to a sound system. If necessary, musicians can install a simple, discreet amplifier to ensure an intermediate sound level. This allows guests to enjoy live music that is present but not intrusive.
The sound of Grégory Chauchat performing his accordion, whether solo or as part of a duo or larger ensemble, will bring an original, classy and virtuoso touch to any event.
