The Triple Door Mainstage is a beautiful 274-seat theater, with great comfort, sightlines, and sound, plus delicious food from Wild Ginger!
We're bringing together Hot Club Swing musicians from around Puget Sound to celebrate Django Reinhardt’s 117th birthday! We'll feature as many great players as we can--another group (TBA) will kick off the evening, then we'll perform, and finally we’ll close out the night by combining both bands for an epic grand finale.
Django was an itinerant Romani guitarist who earned international acclaim in the 1930’s. Many of his compositions became jazz classics and he is considered one of the top guitar soloists of all time. Duke Ellington called Django “the most creative jazz musician to originate anywhere outside the United States.” Decades later, Jerry Garcia said, “Nobody has really come to the state that he was playing at…nobody plays with the whole fullness of expression that Django had.”
This event has been very popular in the past--we recommend buying tickets in advance.
