 | Demonic Lovely - Le Chat Lunatique
$16.00 The type of music that Le Chat Lunatique plays is a combination of Gypsy
Swing, Western Swing and anything else that they damn well please! Filthy,
Mangy Jazz is their forte! All of this madness came about due to John Sandlin
and Muni Kulasinghe\'s mutual love for the great Hot Club of France, a gypsy
swing group from 1940\'s Paris, which included the combined genius of Django
Reinhardt and Stephane Grapelli. Jared Putnam\'s western swing background
has fused itself into the mix and given them a fine repertoire of classic western
swing tunes. In addition, Fernando Garavito\'s latin background has seeped into
the rhythmic palette and given them a formidable groove.
