Le Cafe Jazz

Return to Previous Page

Le Cafe Jazz performs a delightful mix of Swing Jazz classics with a Gypsy Jazz twist. It’s based around a string jazz trio, featuring violin, Django Reinhardt style guitar and double bass performing a version of Swing Jazz based on material drawn from the 1920s-30s Broadway Shows in “Hot Club” Paris style.

“Gypsy Swing Jazz in true Paris “Hot Club style …”

Eastern European gypsy music meets American Swing and the guys take the French Café Jazz formula as their starting point and even includes country rock ‘n’ roll, played Gypsy fashion! From an acoustic duo to a full five-piece outfit, with additional accordion and drum, Le Café Jazz provides all the ingredients for an excellent evening’s musical entertainment. Whatever the line-up, the band comes fully-equipped with a high-quality PA system that delivers a crystal-clear sound in venues of all sizes.

Whether it’s a wedding, social occasion or corporate event, Le Café Jazz is the spine-tingling formula for a memorable night of quality music.

Reviews

  1. James and Anisa’s Wedding

    Many thanks for coming along to play at our wedding reception. We really enjoyed having you there. The music was just what we wanted and helped to make the day really special. Thanks again!

  2. Joan Penny’s Evening Celebration

    Le Café Jazz were the perfect band for our evening of celebration. Guests of all ages and walks of life enjoyed the melodic tunes and more upbeat medleys from the trio. We all enjoyed a fantastic night due in large part to the professional and friendly attitude of Le Café Jazz. We would welcome them back into our hotel anytime.

  3. Barbara Gray – Whitehall Garden Centre, Lacock

    Performing a mix of Swing Jazz favourites, Le Cafe Jazz created the perfect Summer atmosphere at Whitehall Garden Centre’s summer party. We enjoyed their performance so much in that we booked them back the next year!

  4. GM Cosy Club – Bath

    Hi HTYD, Just wanted to let you know that last night was a great success, we were very busy, gained new customers and the atmosphere was great, We will definitely consider using Le Cafe Jazz again in the future (maybe sooner rather than later)

  5. James Grenfell

    James and Anisa’s Wedding Reception

    Thank you to Le Café Jazz who braved freezing conditions and an over-enthusiastic audience who also wanted to take part in the music making. Thank you for entertaining us for the evening and making our day very special. It was a great and much appreciated performance and it was great to have you there.

  6. Jo Davies’ Garden Party

    Just to thank you and Le Café Jazz Duo who performed at our garden party on Saturday – they were perfect and really added something special to the occasion.

  7. Jenny Standfast – Birthday Party

    This is a quick note to say thanks so much for suggesting and then arranging for Le Cafe Jazz to play. They were brilliant and absolutely made the party! Could you pass on thanks? I will keep you in mind for any other events that I am organising! Thanks again.
