Milwaukee Hot Club Swing Band from Milwaukee, WI

Milwaukee Hot Club plays "gypsy jazz", the music of the late great Django Reinhardt and his modern descendants. Our music is a high energy mix of swing, bossa, and gypsy samba rhythms. Although this is known primarily as an instrumental style, we do sing and depending on the gig vocal tunes may comprise up to 50% of our set. Although the core of the band is 2 gypsy guitars and upright bass, we usually play with our sax man and sometimes augment the band with other horns, percussion, or female vocals. We perform acoustically and with amplification designed to preserve the acoustic qualities of our instruments. Our music has been enthusiastically received at festivals, cafes, bars, and house parties and we've been featured in live performances on two Milwaukee radio radio stations. We are equally comfortable playing to a thousand or a dozen people, so let us come brighten up your next event!
