Paul McIver Quartet performs original material from McIver’s My Lover’s Dream album and traditional Gypsy Swing repertoire. McIver (Bois et Charbon) is joined by Kristian Brown (South of Samois) on Guitar, the classically trained Niki LoBartolo on Violin and Enzo Ruberto (Le Mauvaise Reputation) on Double Bass. Inspired by contemporary Gypsy Swing maestros, such as Fapy Lafertin and Tchavollo Schmitt, as well as the legendary Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli, McIver’s music is fiery, lyrical and poetic. Allow yourself to be transported to the campfires of the French countryside by LoBartolo’s swirling, melodic violin lines and the invigorating Gypsy Swing rhythm section. As suited to dancing as it is for contemplation, the Paul McIver Quartet plays a timeless genre with a fresh twist.
