Cafe Americain: Welcome!

Alternating between guitar and mandolin melodic leads with superior accompaniment from the rhythm guitar and bass, Café Americain has its own fresh sound. While the music contains the improvisation and swing of jazz, the group also crosses over into European café music and prejazz string music. But most important is that their performances are quite fun. Whether for dancing or close listening, for a gypsy jazz crowd, fans of David Grisman or lovers of romantic European melodies, Café Americain throws a musical party that is quite pleasing and memorable. Highly recommended. - Scott Yanow, Author of ten jazz books including The Jazz Singers, Trumpet Kings, Swing, Jazz On Film and Jazz On Record 1917-76 Our New CD is Available!
