Paul Guta, is already well known on the Blauzac stage; he is a soul, a spirit, the quintessence of gypsy jazz.
Coming from a line of great Gypsy musicians, the Guta family left Romania in the early 2000s and settled in France. A family of musicians from fathers to sons, carried on the roads of Europe by the spirit of the times, carrying with them their gypsy tunes in perpetual transformation and yet remaining true to their roots.
Skillfully playing with the codes of Balkan gypsy music and gypsy jazz; mischievously navigating between classical tunes and French variety, this unique formation breathes new air onto the musical scene.
Each of Paul Guta & Friends' performances is a moment of crazy grace, drunk with freedom and emotion, timeless and unforgettable.
