An evening with the music of the Guitar and Violin virtuosos Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli played by two of this country’s finest exponents of this style. Expect to be flown back in time to the dance halls of the 1940s with this homage to the Quintet of the hot club of France. This really was the “Swing” era, full of irresistible rhythms and all the musical indulgence there was to offer.


Ben (Violin, Vocals) and Stuart (Gypsy Guitar) have toured together extensively throughout the UK, Europe and the USA over the last 8 years. previously they made up half of the highly acclaimed band ‘Gypsy Fire” and now are focusing their creative juices on this project. This most recent project has just had world wide exposure after performing for Elton John and the Beckhams at Romeo Beckhams 16th Birthday celebrations in Nice.
