'Midnight in Paris' Song Composer Headlines Second Culver City Boulevard Music Concert Tonight

Tonight, the festival presents Gypsy Jazz with Stephane Wrembel and his band.

Recently, Stephane played live during the 2012 Academy Awards and performed along with Pharrell and Esperanza Spaulding among others as part of the All-Star Band. Stephane has also released four critically acclaimed albums including one with the legendary David Grisman and has toured nationally with Mark O'Conner. Stephane will be touring behind his new album, Origins.
