The Midwest Gypsy Swing Festival

http://midwestgypsyswingfest.com

Friday September 16 and Saturday, September 17, 2011
at Art In The Barn
5927 Adams Rd, Fitchburg, Madison WI

Featured bands
•Robin Nolan Trio - back by popular demand – a festival favorite - direct from Amsterdam
•Ameranouche – acoustic gypsy jazz power trio – two-time winner of Best of New Hampshire awards as well as being veterans of the famed Newport Jazz Festival.
•Jessica Fichot – Chanteuse/songwriter Jessica Fichot draws from her French/Chinese/American heritage and her youth in Paris to create a delicious blend of French chanson, gypsy jazz and international folk.
•Harmonious Wail - the award winning founders of this amazing festival return. Gypsy swinging, torch singing and Wailin’more than ever.
•Alphonso Pontichelli - One late addition to the schedule is the appearance of spectacular jazz guitarist Alfonso Ponticelli, who is the bandleader for Chicago's Swing Gitan Gypsy Swing/Jazz band. He's performed here at past Midwest Gypsy Swing Festivals and will be back to knock out the crowds again. He's a close friend of both Robin Nolan and Ameranouche, so who knows what madness will transpire.
