DJANGOLOGIE

DJANGOLOGIE

 

The North East’s premier group bring a remarkable freshness to the Hot Club style. Noted for the way that they maintain the swinging spirit of the great Reinhardt – Grappelli outfits but without trying to be a carbon copy.

Firmly rooted in the Hot Club sound of the swing era, all four members of the band have a detailed acquaintance with the gypsy jazz tradition.They use this knowledge not just to recreate classics from the past but to apply the approach to a growing book of excellent originals played with virtuoso brio by four of the finest exponents of the style.

Djangologie evoke the authentic sounds of Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli.
