The
John Jorgenson Quintet features guitarist John Jorgenson, a founding
member of the Desert Rose Band, the Hellecasters, and six-year member of
Elton John’s band. Artists ranging from Barbra Streisand to Bonnie Raitt
to Earl Scruggs have sought out Jorgenson’s guitar work. Recently, John
Jorgenson was chosen to portray Django Reinhardt in the feature film
Head in the Clouds.
At a John Jorgenson Quintet performance, audiences are amazed by John’s dazzling guitar work as well as his mastery as a clarinet player and vocalist. Whether playing his own compositions or classic standards, John and his band make music that is equally romantic and ecstatic, played with virtuosity and soul. Come hear Gypsy Jazz at its finest.
