A band with a real continental sound: Music inspired by the great recordings of Django Reindhardt. We play a selection of swinging jazz standards, traditional gypsy folk tunes, french musette, walzes and bossanovas. The cheerful swing of the music with a light bounce creates a relaxed, happy atmosphere.
The band was formed to play in a bar in New Cross, London every Monday night in 2005. Since then we have performed in palaces, castles, galleries, gardens, hotels, riverboats, houses large and small, conference centres, churches, restaurants and more.
For small events we can perform acoustically, and for larger events we have our own amplifiers that can bring.
Lineups:
Generally a four piece band, although for certain bookings we can perform as a trio. We can also add other instruments and a vocalist if desired: clarinet, accordion, etc.
