Anyone who wants to play in NYC?

Hey,
I'm new in NYC and would like to find other gypsy jazz players.
Of course, I have been to the jazz in Fada bistro but the level was so high (especially the violonists) that I think that I need to practice quite a lot to join the jam. Currently, I am a quite good rhythm player (when in Paris, I played as a rythm guitar in Eastern music band and gypsy band) and I am working to improve my solo level (sound, improvisation...). But it is tenfold more useful to work with other people than alone...
So if you have spare time and want to play, mp me

I would suggest reaching out to Stephane Wrembel to see if his Wednesday night jam is still going on in downtown Jersey City (very short train ride from midtown or the downtown). I have not been there since September, but it is a very approachable jam with common tunes and good players. The tempos are generally reasonable until Stephane turns it up a notch.
