To have "La Pêche" is French for being in a particularly good mood and great form ; a feeling the band immediately conveys with its fiery energy and unique sound, taking roots in traditional musics from Eastern Europe and the Balkans.

Born in 2012 out of a residency at the legendary Café Revolution in San Francisco, La Pêche quickly grew under Saxophonist Paul Bertin's direction to become one of the most original players in the California Balkan scene. 

After the release of their Soundtrack to the 1904 movie "Journey Through The Impossible", composed and recorded in collaboration with emmy winning composer Dan Cantrell, the group embarked on a journey through the Balkans, where they were featured on National Bulgarian Radio and had a chance to study with local master musicians. 
​
In 2017, La Pêche joined forces with Italian-Mexican band Kel-Mo for a tour in France, followed by a residency in Mexico where the band performed at the Tulum Jazz Festival.
