First Thursday June 4

Join us on First Thursday, June 4 from 5-9 pm with hot swing and gypsy jazz by The Bow Djangos, exhibition openings, art deals and steals, and much more! Admission is free!

The Bow Djangos

Calgary’s gypsy jazz ambassadors – “The Bow Djangos” assure authentic jazz manouche flavour and a memorable hot swing listening experience! A true Hot ‘Club’, we promote this style of music through workshops, jams, and networking as well as performing.

Our performances are characterized by a captivating presentation of Hot Club Swing played with true gypsy flare! Alluring and melodic ballads, valse musettes, driving latin rhythms, and a  swingin’ ‘django’-esque repertoire make audiences jump up and dance!

Take a listen!
