Les Ogres de Barback are kind of like the French version of the Family Von Trapp, except far more entertaining, far better lyricists and, just to top it off, each member is multi-instrumental. Ok, the only real similarity between Les Ogres de Barback and the Von Trapps is the sibling element, but nonetheless my point is that this band rocks and you should definitely go and see them.
Les Ogres de Barback produces amazingly entertaining French music, which is instantly likeable and infinitely listenable. It would be far too time consuming to list all of the various instruments that band members Fred, Sam, Alice and Mathilde have mastered and employ during there shows, but to leave you suitably impressed I’ll say this: each member of the band can play one or more instruments from the brass, strings and percussion sections.
As intimidating as the band’s musical talents might be, a Les Ogres show is nothing short of awe-inspiring. Songs like “Les Voyageurs” and “Ma Fille” are fascinating to watch. The melodies and lyrics are so fast it’s a wonder that the band is able to play and sing at the same time. Couple this with the theatrical lighting and performers the band has been known to bring on for their performances (I saw an aerial silk performance at one of their gigs) and you have a real spectacle on your hands. A spectacle that you will definitely love.
