Django New Orleans: Jazz Ensemble in New York

About Django New Orleans

Django New Orleans is a jazz ensemble led by guitarist Stéphane Wrembel, built around the legacy of Django Reinhardt and the rhythmic language of New Orleans. In New York City, the group appears at Barbès, a room where close quarters and limited seating sharpen the focus on ensemble interplay. The repertoire moves between swing-era string tradition and street-band cadence, treating both as living source material rather than period costume. The performances favor line and groove over display, with Wrembel’s guitar often serving as a steady narrative voice.
