Details:
This is Gypsy Jazz for the modern era. With these twelve selections Patrick Berrogainâs Hot Club Combo achieves a perfect balance between the Gypsy and the jazz aspects of the music. Angelo Debarreâs vituosity pulls toward the total Gypsy vibe while Patrick's take on the music, more rooted in the jazz idiom makes for a very compelling and unique sound. Add to this the delightful voice of Rosemary Berrogain, the hard swinging sax of Tripp Sprague, the brilliant playing of accordionist Lou Fanucchi and you get a unique recording. Half of the material is comprised of original compositions by Patrick Berrogain, the other half a tribute to Django Reinhardt (Black and White, Fleur dâennui...) and the French classics repertoire (La Vie en Rose, Le Danseur de Charleston... ) through refreshing arrangements.

Bio :

Guitarist, composer and arranger and graduate from the G.I.T Patrick Berrogain first became exposed to the music of Django Reinhardt and the musette repertoire at a young age while growing up in the south of France. It was not until living in San Diego, however, that he formed the Gypsy Jazz group âHot Club of San Diegoâ in 98 with fellow expatriate and rhythm guitarist, Alain Cola before forming his Hot Club Combo in 2007.
