French virtuoso guitarist Stephane Wrembel may not be a gypsy by definition, but his music has all the nostalgia, joy and jangle of a true gypsy musician. Passed down from father to son in a rich oral tradition, gypsy music paints an impressionist landscape of the Bohemian lifestyle: traveling gypsies in horse-drawn caravans, dancers careening around campfires, gypsy women in long skirts with carefree children at their knees while a band of musicians plays through the night. The music of Stephane Wrembel takes us to the gypsy camp to dance around the campfire with the same sense of freedom, abandon and vitality as the gypsies. In addtion to his core band, stephane invites different guests every week including violinist Olivier Manchon, Washboard Kit master David Langlois or Cellist Rushad Egggleston.
