They are devoted to keeping the spirit of Django Reinhardt alive while adding their own spark to the tradition. Here, the group is led by guitarist Ryan Picone, an acolyte of world-renowned guitarist Stéphane Wrembel. Also, they feature the dynamic interplay of guitarist Ian Stenlund, the soaring violin of Daniel Lentz, and the driving pulse of bassist Sean Roderick. Together, they create a sound that’s at once timeless and fresh, blending dazzling virtuosity with irresistible swing. The Red Hot Django Peppers’ audience grows with each performance. Moreover, they are not just torchbearers of Django’s legacy, but innovators bringing new energy and excitement to hot club jazz. The Twin Cities Hot Club (TCHC) represents Minnesota in the burgeoning hot club revival. There, this was originally popularized by Django Reinhardt, Stephane Grappelli and the Hot Club of France. Now, they recreate the famous la pompe that distinguishes this romantic brand of acoustic jazz. Also, they cover gypsy bossa nova, musette, bolero, and swing. TCHC perform this timeless deep-rooted music that is physical, alive and speaks directly to the heart. TCHC formed in 2005 and have been sharing their expressive, “hot” style with audiences ever since. Additionally, the group has been featured on Jazz 88 and Minnesota Public Radio. Moreover, they have received rave reviews in Vintage Guitar Magazine, Acoustic Guitar Magazine, the Twin Cities Jazz Society and the Star Tribune. Members include Robert Bell on guitar, Gary Schulte on violin, Stan Ponkin on guitar and Matt Peterson on bass.
