The
Lyrebirds
Playing the vibrant Parisian jazz of the 1930s, The Lyrebirds Collective brings the warm, swinging and uplifting sound of Django Reinhardt to life!
Who Are We?
We are a brand-new jazz collective from the Netherlands, playing the music of Django Reinhardt, managed by the guitarists Seba Strings and Lars van Teeffelen and pianist Lucy Geelen!Regarded as Europe’s earliest jazz tradition, the genre of 'Gipsy Jazz' emerged with Django Reinhardt in the cafés and dance halls of 1930s Paris, where European musical traditions blended with the American hot jazz.With its driving rhythms, expressive melodies and joyful improvisation, the Lyrebirds bring this music to life, creating a warm and uplifting atmosphere wherever its played!
