Title

Gypsy Jazz - Live music, London

Description

Le QuecumBar is committed to providing and supporting acoustic and nostalgic jazz/swing by working with the best musicians who believe as we do in our aim to become the foremost Hot Club Gypsy Jazz/Swing venue in London.

The bar began as a seed that sprouted and blossomed many years ago at the annual Django Reinhardt Gypsy Jazz festival held in Samois, France. The bar become a reality due to pig-headedness and tenacity, fuelled by the inspirational off-the-wall friendly quirky 1930s charm and nostalgia of pre-war France, where the aroma of garlic mingled with the sounds of typical bal musette street café music. This is where Django Reinhardt played the guitar with magic in his hands and invented the finest ever Hot Club gypsy jazz, the birth of European jazz, making Paris swing to the newly discovered liberty of unconventional but melodious rhythms.

So soak up the ambience of Parisian chic; experience la belle époque in a venue where strangers become your friends; relax and linger whilst you quaff a glass of wine and peruse the menu at your leisure; share the magic of real music as it is created, all in a place where time seems to stand still. Above all, have fun rediscovering the roots of Hot Club gypsy jazz swing, jazz standards, Latin and other acoustic and nostalgic music from a truly elegant era.
