About Swing Gitane:

Back to bands

Swing Gitane are a group of professional musicians with a shared love of the European swing of the 1920s and 30s that was originally made famous by the groundbreaking guitar and acrobatic violin of Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli.

Swing Gitane are able to bring this infectious and unique music to your event, in a number of live configurations:

Guitar Duo
Trio (with double bass)
Quartet (with Violin)
Quintet (with the addition of female vocals)

We have a wide repertoire featuring the usual gypsy jazz classics, American Songbook numbers, and contemporary music reimagined in a gypsy way. We are of course happy to take requests to help make your event unique.
