The star musicians of the Django Festival Allstars have grown into a brilliantly cohesive group playing top concert halls and festivals. The group’s music transports listeners to Paris in the 1920s and ’30s, when Django was king and gitane music filled the air. The Django Festival Allstars bring Reinhardt’s music into the 21st century, honoring traditions and standards while adding their own interpretations, arrangements, and original compositions. The Django Festival Allstars return to MIM’s Music Theater with the sublime vocalist Veronica Swift for a magical evening of hot jazz. While her first two albums solidified her position in modern jazz, Swift shows that she’s more than a jazz singer, exploring French and Italian opera, European classical music, bossa nova, blues, industrial rock, funk, and vaudeville. Swift’s expansive artistic voice remains firmly intact regardless of genre. Swift first gained major international attention in 2015 when she won second place in the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz International Vocals Competition. Four years later, Mack Avenue Records released her acclaimed album Confessions when she was only 25 years old.
