About the event
Voudou Zazou – a name inspired by the sharply-dressed French jazz fans of the interwar years – are excited by the swinging hot-club gypsy music that exploded in Paris with Django Reinhardt, Stephane Grappelli and their cohort almost a century ago. The gypsy/manouche style continues to thrive throughout France, Europe and elsewhere… including in Perth, Australia.
The band is at home in small bars, jazz rooms and festival stages. They had a 7-year residency at the Swallow Bar, had sell-out shows at the Ellington (“Swingtime in Paris”), a 5-night Fringe run at His Majesty’s Theatre (“Swingin’ On The High Seas) and feature performances at WA’s inaugural Gypsy Jazz Festival, alongside international stars Robin Nolan Trio and Hank Marvin Gypsy Jazz.
The delightful vocals of Coo Jarvis are backed by guitar (Andy Jarvis), accordion (Mark Linkington), double bass (Sid Hennessy) and special guest Ronniet Orlando on violin. Expect exciting arrangements of classic jazz and gypsy swing numbers, alongside the band’s own authentic originals. This swinging ensemble is guaranteed to get your toes tapping and bring a smile to your face. Enjoy a fabulous evening of swingin’ sounds when the band returns to the Jazz Club of WA at the Milk Bar.
