New Album: ‘Histoires’ by Marion & Sobo Band

Franco-American singer Marion Lenfant-Preus and Polish guitarist Alexander “Sobo” Sobocinski bring together 5 musicians and 6 languages for the June 25th release Histoires, a playful tongue-twisting spin on gypsy jazz, world music and chanson.

At the heart of this Bonn-based French-German-Polish quintet is Marion (who grew up in France) and Polish guitarist Alexander Sobocinski, aka Sobo.

But it’s not just the musicians themselves who are well-travelled; the musical language of the repertoire is also colourful and diverse.
