Caravan Gypsy Swing Ensemble is an instrumental acoustic jazz group based out of Madison, Wisconsin. They are primarily influenced by the legendary Gypsy guitarist Django Reinhardt. The ensemble also pulls influences from jazz, swing, European folk, traditional Latin, Parisian waltz, and other vintage-jazz sources. Expect a range of tunes from the “Hot Swing" repertoire, originals and standards done in uniquely arranged styles.
“Original, energetic and really talented... I love their sound!"”

"None of the music is a radical departure from that performed by Django Reinhardt, but it also is not a mere imitation of past recordings. There is enough unpredictability and chance taking to make this a CD well worth searching for."
