Fifteen years of honing their craft, playing hundreds of gigs and releasing six well-received albums have made Cochon Bleu into what they are today - one of Hollands most sparkling bands. Accordion, guitars, mandolin - in fact, anything with strings on it, plus vigorous singing are their weapons of choice, backed by a steadily pulsating rhythm section. Pure cajun music was their point of origin, but they have absorbed many influences along the way and gradually developed a style of their own. Two things remain, though: French lyrics and ceaseless energy.

Anyone who witnesses one of their energetic performances, will know that having fun and a great sense of humour are important to these guys. This has already caused a sensationat many a festival like Folkwoods, EuroSonic, Noorderzon,

De Parade or Oerol, and as​ well on reputed stages like Paradiso. But Cochon Bleu feel just as much at home in their small  favourite hangout​Café Marleen as on big mega size stages. The group's CDs take you from the starting point of pure cajun covers Changez les Guitares to recent albums filled with ​well executed​ originals like  It's All Coming Good and Not Blue.
