What:
Motown's own reinterpration of classic Gypsy swing incorporates musette, new orleans and bop idiom. with Evan Perri - guitar; Julien Labro - accordion; Carl Cafagna - saxes & clarinet; Paul Brady - rhythm guitar and Shannon Wade - bass. The fibrous accordion tones of Labro, a native of Marseilles, France, links the Detroit quintet to the French musette style from which gypsy jazz partially sprung, while Cafagna's robust saxophone work introduces bop and post-bop elements to gypsy jazz. They will be joined by Barbes' own Stephane Wrembel.
