Django Hula

Jean Baptiste “Django” Reinhardt lived from January 23, 1910 to May 16, 1953.
The Gypsy Jazz Guitarist Genius did more for the guitar than any other man in jazz.
In 1934, Reinhardt and Parisian violinist Stephan Grappelli formed the “Quintette Du Hot Club De France” in Paris.
Django’s recordings were heard around the world.
Present day Hawaii jazz guitarist Sonny Silva, founder of the band, “Hot Club of Hulaville”, asked me if there was a Django influence on Hawaiian music in the 1930s.
The answer is a resounding, “Yes!”.
Today, we’ll share some of the rarest recordings made by Hawaiian musicians who were directly influenced by Django’s recordings in the late 1930s.
