Coco’s Lunch recently returned from an amazing week of concerts alongside some of the world’s most accomplished contemporary choral acts in FRANCE. The Polyfollia 4th World Choral Showcase was an invite only affair, and Coco’s Lunch performed to festival directors from all over the globe, as well as conducting workshops for French choirs, festival delegates and the public (and translated into French by the group’s multi-lingual tour manager Sally Blackwood!)
Coco’s Lunch was nominated in the Top 5 ‘Favourite Oceanic A Cappella Groups’ category in the Contemporary A Cappella Society’s 2010 Community Awards in the USA.
