Rythme Futur
These guys have been burning up the UK Gypsy Jazz scene since 2000.
Rythme Futur play regularly at the National Theatre and Le Quecumbar in Battersea. They have also played at Café Royal, Bloomsbury Theatre, 606 Club, The Vortex, The 100 Club, Chelsea Arts Club, Birmingham, Ealing and Greenwich Jazz Festivals, the International Gypsy Guitar Festival and the Esprit de Manouche Festival, City of London Festival, BBC Radio’s ‘World on the Streets Festival’ and have toured Italy.
They play Jazz and swing inspired by the ‘Hot Club De France’ featuring the great Django Reinhardt on Guitar. Taking this as their starting point their repertoire includes Jazz and Swing, Gypsy, and Latin tunes, all performed with the fiery energy and fast improvisational lines typical of ‘Jazz Manouche’. Members of the band, including bass player George Trebar, are involved with the Jazz Manouche scene in Paris and Holland, playing with Gypsy musicians such as Moreno as well as ‘straight’ Jazz players including Tim Kliphuis.
