LA VIE EN ROSE

Gypsy, Jazz & Hot Swing

These Exeter based musicians have wide-ranging individual backgrounds in classical music, traditional jazz, rock, blues, country, ragtime and roots, all drawn together by the shared pleasure of playing gypsy jazz and hot swing.        

Performing  to acclaim at larger festivals such as Upton Jazz, Lyme Jazz & Blues, ‘Midsummer Dreams’ at Dartington Hall, ‘Respect’, ‘Acoustica’ and ‘Nourish’. For events like ‘Jazz on the Quay’ and Velo Vintage. At the huge Cosy Club in Bristol for their New Year’s Eve  festivities,  and for three years running at The Royal Albert Hall’s ‘Verdi Italian Kitchen’  for their prestigious  Valentine’s  Day event. 

They have built a reputation for their mix of ‘Hotclub’ favourites,  jazz standards, soulful ballads and Latin swing mixed with the occasional unexpected film theme or classical score!  Toe-tapping  rhythms and virtuoso melody lines combine  in a performance with all the verve and joy that makes this music so irresistible.
