Monsieur Camembert

About Me

Triple ARIA Award winning group Monsieur Camembert has been at the forefront of Australias GYPROCK scene for the past 10 years "...a gloriously good humoured & eclectic collection of genres colliding...its all carnival sounds & folk parody but played with undeniable ebullient gusto & enthusiasm. Musically as diverse as the ethnic mix in the line-up itself, & delivered with all the virtuosity, bravado & wit you'd expect from this superbly cerebral yet viscerally driven ensemble" (Drum Media)
