“Joscho Stephan is the future of Gypsy Jazz guitar. He has absorbed the music of Django Reinhardt and interpreted it on his own terms.” — Acoustic Guitar Magazine
“He plays with the clarity of a classical guitarist, the improvisation of a jazz musician, and the fire of a rock star.” — Guitar Player
Hailed as one of the most exciting ensembles in the acoustic guitar scene today, the Joscho Stephan Trio is breathing fresh life into the classic gypsy swing tradition pioneered by Django Reinhardt. Led by the masterful playing of Joscho Stephan and joined by Sven Jungbeck (guitar) and Volker Kamp (double bass), their live performances reveal a mesmerizing synergy and technical brilliance that captivate audiences worldwide.
With a YouTube channel amassing nearly 40 million views, Joscho has built a global following. He has collaborated with guitar legends including Tommy Emmanuel, Stochelo Rosenberg, and Biréli Lagrène, and was handpicked as the only European guitarist at the exclusive George Benson Camp.
At the heart of the trio’s success is their fearless musical innovation. While they reverently rework timeless jazz standards, they also infuse their own compositions with influences spanning Latin, classical, pop, and rock—making every set a dynamic feast for the ears.
