Hot Club of Philly Hosts World Class Musician Stephane Wremble
Hot Club of Philly – Saturday July 30th 8:30pm
He’s been called a “revelation” by Rolling Stone. Woody Allen recruited him to score the theme to the 2012 Academy Award winning film ‘Midnight in Paris.’ And he performed live during that years Oscars telecast. To say that French-born guitarist/composer Stephane Wrembel who learned his craft among the Gypsies at campsites in the French countryside has already had a remarkable career would be an understatement. But this virtuoso, who is now based in North Jersey has truly just begun to make his mark as one of the most original guitar voices in contemporary music.
Part of the Chestnut Hill Concert Series don’t miss the chance to see this world-class musician! For tickets or more information visit the Hot Club of Philly’s Website.
