2025 January 31st @ 7:00 PM: Zazu West – Django Reinhardt Birthday Celebration

Celebrate Django Reinhardt’s birthday with ZAZU West, Phoenix’s premier ensemble dedicated to Gypsy Jazz, the style devoted to the legacy of the influential jazz guitar legend. Gypsy Jazz, Jazz Manouche, French Swing. Whatever it’s called, the sound is infectious, swinging, and unmistakably Django. Whether playing unique Django compositions, traditional and contemporary jazz standards in the Gypsy Jazz style, or the music of today’s Gypsy Jazz greats in Europe and the U.S., ZAZU West creates a one-of-a-kind performance experience full of irresistible swing, melancholy dark and moody highlights, and improvisation with reckless abandon.
