Gypsy music at the highest level

Gypsy Jazz has a new name: Gismo Graf! Only 30 years old, he can now look back on a fabulous career with numerous concerts and tours worldwide as well as four album productions to date and has already taken a leading position as a guitarist in the gypsy and jazz scene. With charisma and youthful charm, he continues the tradition that Joschi Graf - Gismo's father, mentor and fellow ensemble member - passed on to him: the rousing style of playing in the spirit of the great Django Reinhardt.

Innovative and contemporary

Gismo Graf is one of the young and wild musicians who give gypsy jazz a contemporary face with sensitive respect for the past.

With his innovative style, he seems to playfully combine various genres such as jazz, pop, swing, bossa nova and much more, thus meeting contemporary tastes. Not just for die-hard jazz fans! What once began with a young shooting star has now, after 12 years, established itself as an integral part of the international gypsy jazz scene.

A trio that wants to surprise

Together with Joel Locher on double bass and Joschi Graf on rhythm guitar, they are constantly working on new material - driven by an unbroken urge for perfection - so that no two concerts are ever the same. At no point does the listener get the feeling that they are witnessing a random string of songs. Rather, the trio manages to surprise the audience anew from piece to piece and inspire them with their relaxed stage presence and joy of playing right up to the last rows.
