Annie and the Hedonists were originally scheduled to perform our 1st summer concert of the season – Unfortunately, they won’t be able to perform on July 6, but we are working hard to re-schedule them for later this summer…
Our July 6 concert isn’t cancelled though – we present HOT CLUB OF SARATOGA, upstate New York’s premier gypsy swing collective!
“Hot Club of Saratoga, the Capital Region’s premier gypsy swing ensemble, plays a repertoire that reflects the spirit and style originated by Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli in The Quintet of the Hot Club of France. Most prominently developed in 1930’s and 40’s Paris, this genre has been kept alive through a long line of gypsy jazz artists since that time.
The instrumentation of the full quintet allows HCS to explore this style throughout the range of its roots, true to its origins while subtly expanding the genre. Hot Club’s repertoire covers the range from sweet, soulful balladry, through hard driving swing, and fiery, upbeat tempos, sure to bring a smile and irresistible desire to move.”
