Event
the Robin Nolan Trio (England)
$15.00 Cover Cover begins at 7pm Show begins at 9pm (two sets)
Robin Nolan, one of the world's best known and most admired gypsy jazz guitarists, has been lauded for his musical genius and sensibilities by Willie Nelson, Rolling Stones bassist Bill Wyman, and the late George Harrison.Robin became one of Harrison's favorite guitarists and was his 'secret weapon' at many a party thrown at his English country estate Friar Park. While his inspiration lies in Gypsy Jazz, Latin and Hot Club de France, Robin has a decidedly contemporary feel and fires up his music with his own expressive "je ne sais quoi". Backed by his trio's hypnotic rhythms, his rippling melodic ideas and solos set him apart from his contemporaries. Whether playing jazz standards, original compositions, or a nod at rock and pop music, Robin always delights his audiences with a show of special splendor and style. Born in Vietnam in 1968 to musical parents who were entertaining the US troops at the time, Robin was instantly immersed into the life of a working traveling musician. First taught by his father at the age of six in Hong Kong he began a musical journey, which has taken him through Blues, Rock and Jazz before arriving at his love and passion.... the music of Django Reinhardt and the Gypsies. Nolan has recently signed to DhaniHarrison's Hot Records and will release his new album 'Gypsy Blue' in July 2013. In addition to his busy schedule as a performer, Robin is also known as a passionate instructor. He's released some of the most important gypsy jazz instructional books, CDs and videos in the past ten years. His play-along CDs and Gig Book have been the foundation of study and jam sessions for thousands of guitarist worldwide.
