Betty’s Bounce plays music inspired by Parisian gypsy jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt, infused with American jazz, blues and pop sounds. The music is lively and upbeat, covering swing, ballads, and Latin styles, with Audie Bridges and Curtis Doo on guitar, and Zach Bridges on double bass. Special guest violinist Tomoko Iwamoto has played the Boston jazz scene for 30+ years and has her own gypsy jazz quartet: 440.
