Free Gypsy Swing Jazz Concert: Gaucho | Yoshi’s Oakland

Check out a free jazz concert by Gaucho, SF Weekly’s “Best Jazz/Blues Band of 2009″ in the Lounge at Yoshi’s Jazz Club in Oakland’s Jack London Square.

“Gaucho has its own feel,” group’s founder Dave Ricketts says. “It has a Gypsy jazz sound, but we don’t focus on that rhythm. I’m not trying to say we’re reinventing swing, but we’ve got our own signature. We also find inspiration in the rhythmic drive and collective improvisation of New Orleans swing music, that great gut bucket sound.”
