Swing Nuages, a fun-loving gypsy swing and manouche jazz band featuring an eclectic five-piece group of musicians from different backgrounds, will be playing a repertoire of songs synonymous with Django Reinhardt, as well as other standard tunes adapted to the swinging gypsy style.

The jazz band, made up of Angela Vella Zarb on vocals, Karl Galea and Joshua Bray on guitars, Reggie Clews on violin and Diccon Cooper on double bass, performs uptempo and retro music in the style of Reinhardt, who popularised the ‘hot’ jazz genre in the 1930s.

Swing Nuages will be performing today at The Gut, Strait Street, Valletta at 8pm.
