WEDNESDAY 29th March – COCO ‘N’ THE FELLAS + CAFÉ MANOUCHE ‘Gypsy jazz & swing double-bill’ - COCO ‘N’ THE FELLAS are a London based band, who perform across the country and internationally with their signature fusion of swing and contemporary jazz. All four members are committed composers and throughout the past year they have been working on pushing boundaries in the gypsy swing style. Recently they were accepted into the Yamaha competition as part of Ronnie Scotts Jazz Club and have been featured as part of the Jazz sessions at Blue Piano. The band has recorded two albums and performs regularly across the country. They have also performed together in Italy, Bulgaria, Norway and Scotland. Breathtaking arrangements, varied repertoire and highly regarded musicianship ensure that Coco will transport you to a sonic landscape of gypsy jazz, bebop, fusion and more. Coco and the fellas are: AMI OPRENOVA vocals, DANIELE CUIFREDA, electric guitar, JOE PERKINS acoustic guitar & HAVARD TANNER double bass. Formed in 2014 the CAFE MANOUCHE QUARTET have performed at countless venues and festivals across London and throughout the UK, with music from the 1920s to the 50s, including Parisian Waltzes, hot swing and touches of Be-bop, latin and bossa nova, played in the distinctive style of Gypsy jazz guitar legend Django Reinhardt and the Hot Club of France. The band recorded an EP in 2015 and are due to record their debut album this year, while also working towards writing some original material.
