It’s the perfect excuse to sip, savor, and dance through the month with friends old and new. So join the fun—because here in Paris, July isn’t just a month, it’s a full-on festival of freedom, fireworks, and fantastic times!

🇫🇷 An American in Paris: Sunday Jazz Special Edition 🎶🎆

Sunday, July 13th | 19h - 22h

To ring in the national holiday in true Abricot style, we have chosen to celebrate Paris as a magnet for some of the best international artists. Abricot’s resident Australian jazz singer Melissa Lesnie welcomes two very special guest musicians visiting from LA: you might have heard guitarist Luca Pino, world renowned specialist in the French gypsy jazz style, playing and touring with the viral sensation Post Modern Jukebox. They are accompanied by sax virtuoso Jason Fabus, a Milwaukee native and highly sought-after band leader in the LA jazz scene. They will be playing all your favorite jazz standards you never heard before, plus a healthy dose of French songs, bien sûr!
