Nostalgia in French
"Salut les Copains" play unforgettable catchy tunes from the heyday of French chanson. From "Champs-Élysées" to "Nathalie" and "Main dans la main", the musicians offer you and your guests a reencounter with Joe Dassin, Gilbert Bécaud and many other chansonniers. The duo does this in a minimalist way, with two voices and a guitar, but especially with a lot of charm and a fine pinch of irony. Best enjoyed with a glass of Bordeaux in a dignified atmosphere. Or in the dim light, crowded together, like in a Parisian bar of the 70s.
The band and their performance
"Salut les Copains" is a duo from Aarau and consists of Benno Ernst (vocals, percussion) and Stephan Hunziker (guitar, vocals), also known and awarded as "Chommerbuebe". The experienced musicians prefer to play unamplified, on stage or in the middle of their guests. Intimacy is important - the soulful chansons should reach the audience personally and authentically. Performances of "Salut les Copains" can also be slightly amplified (equipment is available). Two sets of about 35 minutes each are played. By prior arrangement, several sets are possible at your event - or just one set, for example to get into the right musical mood.
