The Hot Club of San Francisco is an American gypsy jazz band ensemble that brings the spirit of the 1930s Parisian vividly to life. Their vintage gypsy sound accompanies a series of rare and altogether delightful silent films from the Django Reinhardt era, creating a unique and evocative concert experience. Let by guitarist, songwriter and arranger Paula 'Pazzo' Mehling, the group blends dazzling guitar work, swinging rhythms, virtuosic violin inspired by legendary Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli's Quintette, du Hot Club de France. The result is a performance that is both technically brillant and irresistibly energetic.
