Strange Folk.

Welcome to The Parisian, your source for what's on this week, and this weekend, in Paris. Looking for clubs, gigs, art shows, exhibitions, film, dance and theatre in Paris? We sort through hundreds of events every week and bring you the cream of the crop.

Plenty of live music on the agenda this week, particularly of the folkish/acoustic variety. Lightspeed CHampion, Efterklang, Tunng, eliotE & the Ritournelles and This Is The Kit are all making appearances, and on the slightly more math/kraut rock side there's Bear In Heaven and Errors to look forward to.

In the galleries there's retrofiction from Lili Reynaud-Dewar, modernist investigations by Marc Desgrandchamps and dream worlds depicted by Pierre Fichefeux. If you're interested in dance you won't want to miss Shantala Shivalingappa at the Theatre des Abbesses, or if you're more inclined to do the dancing yourself check out the Magazine party at Rex and the return of A Night In Detroit.

Finally, make sure you put aside an hour or two to experience Parisonic in the leafy urban surroundings of Le Jardin d'Alice at the weekend.

Many thanks to this week's sponsor, bombshop.
