Join us for a night of amazing music the south-west’s favourite gypsy jazz and hot swing band who have a well-earned reputation for its take on the ‘Hot Club’ style, toe-tapping rhythms and soaring melodies that combine a virtuoso performance of gypsy favourites, jazz standards, soulful ballads and Latin swing.
The heartfelt wail of the blues; the sultry heat of the campfire; the crazy swirl of the bal musette,
all fused together with virtuosity and passion in the melting pot of 1930’s Paris: the result was gypsy jazz. ‘LA VIE EN ROSE’ play this exuberant, toe-tapping music with a swing and joie-de-vivre as fresh today as when Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli first conjured it from the back streets of Pigalle.
About the Band
These Exeter based musicians have wide-ranging individual backgrounds in classical music, traditional jazz, rock, blues, country, ragtime and roots, all drawn together by the shared pleasure of playing gypsy jazz and hot swing.
Performing to acclaim at festivals such as Dart Music Festival, Upton Jazz, Bude Jazz, Jazz Jurassica, Budleigh Music Festival, numerous arts centres including Bridport, TCAT, Ilminster, jazz clubs and private events and for three years running at The Royal Albert Hall’s ‘Verdi Italian Kitchen’ for their prestigious Valentine’s Day event.
