French duo Jac & Co. at The Cooperage

Posted

HONESDALE, PA — Jac & Co. will perform at The Cooperage, 1030 Main St. on Friday, May 29 at 7:30 p.m.

For over 27 years, virtuoso accordionist Jacques Pellarin has brought the sounds of the French countryside to all corners of the globe. After years of touring with the Jacques Pellarin Trio, Pellerin is now touring the East Coast with his lifelong muse, Corine Pellarin, as Jac & Co.

The duo combines vocals and the accordion, transportsing audiences to the dance halls and street-side cafés of France’s yesteryears.

According to the French magazine Le Progrès, they “bring back almost a century of the traditional French ‘chanson’ songs in the likes of Édith Piaf, Yves Montand and Francis Lemarque.”

The Cooperage is operated by the The Cooperage Project, a 501c3 not-for-profit organization that seeks to build community through performance, learning and good times.
