Gypsy jazz in San Francisco?

Jon

Hi guys,

It's looking like I'll be in San Francisco for a couple of weeks in early September. Any hints for gypsy jazz stuff to see and do? People to play with or gigs to go to? Should have a guitar with me...

Tele295

Doug Martin & Jason Vanderford playing in one of their several ensembles. Blush Wine Bar on Thursdays, and various places over the weekend. Look for Avatar Ensemble, Americani Social Club, etc.

Hot Club of SanFrancisco/le Jazz Hot at Le Colonial Mondays.

I'm sure there are more, and I mean no offense by omission - these are just the first that come to mind. I believe there is a gypsy jazz in SF page or group on Facebook

Thanks for that Sounds like there's a lot going on. Brilliant!

I'd be happy to meet up and play, but I live down in San Jose (about 40 miles south).

i think tuesday nights are an open jam. there's also a ton of players out here. here's a facebook group of sf gypsy jazzers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/44428584074/

if the weathers nice, i'm sure a few people wouldn't mind getting together outdoors...

Thanks so much! This'll be fun
