Hey,
Got booked to do a gig mid-Feb, playing 'gypsy jazz' with a violinist, guitarist and bass player.
The only music of this type that I've really listened to (and even that's been pretty light) has been Django. And I can't really recall any drums on any of his recordings.
Anyone got any suggestions for:
a) albums/bands that play gypsy jazz with a drummer
b) groove ideas that I should be using
Obviously I can turn up and play what i think will sound good (mainly mimicking the rhythm guitar) but if there's an authentic way to do it I'd love to tap into that!
Ta.
