I am a guitarist in the Phoenix area looking for others to play gypsy jazz and standards. I currently have a Dell Arte and a Gitane Gypsy jazz guitar as well as an 80's Ibanez L5 copy. Email

My name is Ivan,
I am 18 years old and live in Miami, FL in the Dade County area. I have been playing guitar for about 5 years and have been trying non-stop to both excel in gypsy jazz and find others to play with. I can play rhythm and am slowly beginning to learn how to solo. I am interested in meeting anyone who wants to play, learn, or even form a group. All instrumentalists welcome; violinists, bassists, other guitarists, etc.

James -
Seattle, need other band members to assemble working eclectic Django/Hot Jazz style group. I'm an experienced professional and band leader with much touring and busking experience all over Europe, I play Django rhythm style, also uke and various instruments (glockenspiel, chromatic/bass harmonica, drums, nose whistle) and compose music for my own animated musical. I prefer players who can play with attack, punch and charisma ... more-so than technical ability, (but make it sound good).
A bass player would be great (stand-up, doodle-bass, or bassharp ...
whatever - no electric), and maybe a soloist. Multi-instrumentalists are preferred. Oh, and vocals... I sing and would prefer that the whole group does. Can you travel? Europe for Busking/booked gigs would certainly be in the future.
Thanks, James. Email

Michael

I am 23 years old and have been playing guitar for 9 years, but I have just recently become one with my acoustic guitar. I have been inundated with modern "pop" rock guitar and, though, 90% of the people I know play instruments, I am the only one with a fixation on Jazz and the Django style. I have been playing incessantly as of late learning Django standards and cutting my teeth on those tunes. However, with a lack of fellow instrumentalists in the same vein off which I can bounce ideas or progress and guidance I am trying hard to do this solo. I live in Hudson, NH (Southern, NH 15 mins from Lowell 50 mins from Boston proper). I would like to know if it would be possible perhaps to begin a dialogue via e-mail maybe so as to gather recommendations as to what compositions or recommendations can be made to further my growing or perhaps to meet up and show you what I have learned and maybe get some pointers or tips regarding my Django and Jazz progress in a Jam environment. If you have a spot in a band open, my progress may be best put to the test by playing out. I studied at Berklee College of Music for two years and the most important lesson learned there was that regardless of style or ability, a healthy network of like minded players allows for the best growth, that and a little live show never hurt anyone.

Let me know if you can help out or jam out.
Thank you in advance for the help.

Bryan

Bryan Bergeron-Killough I recently moved to Providence RI where I work as a guitar instructor. I am working on my master's thesis at the university of New Hampshire. When I was trying to figure out what to do my thesis on I was overwehlmed with the prospects of reading more literature about Beethoven's late string quartets, though I love them very much. Over a year ago a friend of mine, who was a jazz violinist from Boston, wanted to make a demo and get some gigs as a quartet in the style of Django and Grapelli. We did just that. It was so much fun that when my wife said you should do your thesis on Django I got really excited about the prospect. So that is what I am doing. Unfortunately my friend the jazz violinist has joined the circus, literally. He plays violin for a circus pit and tours the country. I remain interested in anyone who would like to play some music in this style or to excange information about it. I often drive to Boston, so if you are around the area give my a call.

James

Always looking for other guitar players that want to have fun playing jazz standards. I'm no pro and my chord selection needs to grow (I know all the standard 6 and 5 string root voicing, but inversions, hey, still working on these). Of course I can single line (noddle?), over changes and II/V/I progressions. I "know" about 50 standards (know the chords, can solo over them, but I do use the penetonic scale more then I should). Anyhow, I love Tal Farlow and Jimmy Raney cool jazz period from 1953-1957 the most, and Django music. I live in Orange County.

Kevin

I'm a middle-aged guy in Walnut Creek, CA, looking for other guitarists, middle-aged or otherwise, in the San Francisco Bay Area (preferrably the East Bay) who would like to get together and jam on swing tunes and standards from the the '30s and '40s. I play mostly electric and my style leans more toward Charlie Christian than Django (although I'm a huge fan). My ability level is intermediate to-dare I say it? -- advanced, but I'm learning all the time and feel I could learn a lot more if I had some contact with other players. Contact me at kcflanagan@prodigy.net

Steve Crowhurst

A Brit I am - left the UK in 1970 with a bunch of Django albums - about 10 in all, plus some Eddie Lang, and emigrated to Canada after selling 6 Japanese swords and my beloved 1921 Coletti guitar (only 5,000 made - sold it for 100 pounds! ) - always searched for a Maccaferri but couldnt find one. I did however see Diz Dizley play his and in the style of Django. Is he still around? This was London in the mid-60's. I am down to a 12 bar blues Brownie McGhee style as and when I can get the bloody suit and tie off. All the best from a Django fan in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
