Betty's Bounce is a jazz trio consisting of acoustic bass and two guitars. Betty's Bounce blends Django Reinhardt-style jazz, (a Parisian gypsy jazz guitarist of the 1930’s-40’s) American jazz, Blues and Pop music. The music is lively and upbeat and covers swing, ballads and Latin styles. Betty's Bounce has been together for 15 years. Venues include Mechanics Hall Worcester, jazz clubs, outdoor festivals and private functions. We have released 4 recordings, “Swingin'", "Blues For Django” “Luminous” and our latest “Nostalgique”. Betty's Bounce recordings of "Blues for Django”, "Luminous" and Nostalgique are now available on all major streaming platforms: Spotify, Apple Music, TikTok, Pandora, Amazon, Instagram, YouTube, Tidal, iHeartRadio, Deezer, and others.
