This wasn't the first time Paris Obscur had played at Cat Boucher's Art MusikCircus but it was the first time I had heard him. Paris really is French but he performs all of his songs in English in a set that is very dark but at the same time mysteriously romantic. He brings a sense of humor to his delivery that adds all the more depth to. In a wasteland of cover songs, it is immensely refreshing to hear a truly original performer.
His music may scare you, it may disturb you but so much the better. In world that wants to be comfortably numb, best to feel the darkness rather than nothing at all. He played well over an hour for a highly enthusiastic crowd and he did a fantastic job of it. Come to Cat's Art MusikCircus to hear him as I have no doubt he will be back.
You can learn more about Paris Obscur and hear his music on his PARIS OBSCUR Web site and you can meet him on Facebook.
