Friends, Franco-files and followers,
Dahlia Dior presents
Edith Piaf and Friends
“There’s nothing quite as inspiring as French song when it’s done right. Dahlia Dior does it just right and doesn’t restrict herself to Piaf, but ranges over the best work by the likes of Aznavour, Trenet, Brel and more…” The Drum Media
“Let me share with you a slice of my life as a student, and aspiring singing artist.
I promise to transport you to bohemian Paris, tantalize you with seductive songs, saucy and special, sad and soulful and everything else your heart desires.”
At time, the stage lights up with rhythmical and passionate French Gypsy songs to tap your feet flamenco style. Other times, poetic love songs to melt your heart with raw romance you think only French people can experience. Indeed, you will surprise yourself getting swept in this whirlwind of love.
