"American gypsy jazz!"
Country and rock guitar veteran John Jorgenson brings all his musical creativity and experience to bear in the John Jorgenson Quintet, and the result is an exciting evening of fresh gypsy-style jazz. John is a former member of the Desert Rose Band, the Hellecasters, and Elton John's band, and has recorded and performed with such luminaries as Sting, Bonnie Raitt, and Luciano Pavarotti. A master of gypsy jazz in the style of Django Reinhardt, John's work has appeared in many prominent guitar magazines. He was asked to recreate Django's music for the feature films "Gattica," and "Head in the Clouds," in which he portrayed the legendary guitarist opposite stars Charlize Theron and Penelope Cruz. John won critical praise in France, the home of gypsy jazz, for his recent "Ultraspontane" album, and he took home a Grammy for his contribution to the all-star Brad Paisley country guitar album "Cluster Pluck."
