Stephane Wrembel - The Django Experiment IV '2019

Tracks list

Award-winning guitarist STEPHANE WREMBEL will release The Django Experiment IV
on his own Water is Life Records on January 23, 2019, the 109th anniversary of
the birth of French guitarist Django Reinhardt, who is widely considered one of
the greatest musicians of the twentieth century. Wrembel, most known for his
Grammy Award ® winning composition “Bistro Fada” from the Woody
Allen movie, Midnight In Paris, is one of the preeminent guitarists in the world
specialized in the Reinhardt style. 

The Django Experiment IV is the fourth in a series of recordings Wrembel in
tribute to Reinhardt. The Django Experiment I & The Django Experiment II were
released simultaneously in March of 2017 in conjunction with the
Wrembel-produced Django A Gogo at Carnegie Hall to rave reviews for the CDs and
the festival. The Django Experiment IV was recorded and mastered by Eric Ritter
at The Windmill Recording Studio in Scranton, PA. Once again Wrembel is
accompanied by long-time collaborators Thor Jensen (guitar), Ari Folman Cohen
(bass), Nick Anderson (drums) and special guest Nick Driscoll on saxophone and
clarinet. In addition to one song composed by Django Reinhardt, the 9 songs
include compositions by Kamlo, Renee Lebas, Gerald Marks/Seymour Simons, Isham
Jones/Gus Kahn, Edgar Battle/Eddie Durham, Mongo Santamaria and 2 traditional
songs.

Wrembel’s Django A Gogo 2019 includes performances from April 24th-26th
at The Woodland in Maplewood, N.J., and April 27th at The Town Hall in New York
City. Presenting some of the best guitarists in the world, Wrembel will be
joined by Raphaël Fays, Serge Krief, Lior Krief, Ezeckiel Krief, Simba
Baumgartner (Django’s grandson), David Gastine, David Langlois, Julian
Smith, Scott Kettner, Daisy Castro, Thor Jensen, Ari Folman-Cohen, and Nick
Anderson. A very special guest performer will be announced at a later date.
