For those who didn’t know…C’est La Vie are the original members of the Jon J Paul Band, a group who enjoyed premier league success in Country Music during the late 90’s.
Having gone their own ways at the onslaught of the line dance craze they settled in other musical environments, but have decided to reform and continue to deliver their brand of pure Country Music.
The Band fronted by the multi instrumentalist Jon J Paul boast a plethora of songs styles and instrumentation inc the Guitars, Piano and Accordion of Jon J complemented by Derek Thurlby, arguably the UK’s top Steel Guitarist and a virtuoso of both Electric Guitars, Dobro and Mandolin to boot. The driving force behind these superb musicians lies Tony Hornsby on Bass and Lee Guyler on Drums, again both renowned top country musicians in the UK and all names you may recognise from their work with other top Country artists…
The shows are a rare opportunity to see these 4 guys together again and a stunning musical performance not to be missed delivering a cross section of all styles in Country’s rich genre… performed by the UK‘s finest musicians. We look forward to seeing you at our shows.
