In fact the only local content was the beautiful summer weather and the 4,000 people who loved every minute. In January 2013 So Frenchy So Chic In The Park is set to return with another handcrafted festival of joie de vivre. Bring a picnic rug, pick up a gourmet hamper, stretch out under the shade of the trees and enjoy a glass of something sparkling. When the four musical acts put you in the mood, there are acres of rolling lawn for some barefoot dancing.
Always a crowd favourite, Melanie Pain is the bewitching former singer of Nouvelle Vague who has toured Australia eight times before, twice as a solo artist. Next on the bill is the bouncy indie-pop and ’60s inspired harmonies of Revolver, recently nominated best newcomers at the French Grammys. Keeping things jumping is Carmen Maria Vega – think Piaf goes punk. As dusk falls, the French-Aussie Paris-based Nadéah is set to tear up the stage with her unique style of eclectic pop, infused with the wildcat spirit of Brigitte Bardot. So Frenchy is family friendly, with kids under 12 welcome for free.
