Flapper Swing is a quintet following the footsteps of famous French jazz artist Django Reinhardt and New Orleans’ expatriot Sidney Bechet. These five musicians were brought together by their passion for taunting acoustic sounds of gypsy swing. Flapper Swing’s music is a sweet blend of manouche guitars, wild soprano saxophone, sensitive silk-like vocal, supported by deep woody hum of double bass. In their performances, Flapper Swing is striving to bring the audience an atmosphere of roaring twenties and ballroom parties, the times when jazz was still fun.
