Ultrafaux Ensemble
“We sometimes forget that jazz was first and foremost a people’s music meant for dancing and socializing. One evening with Ultrafaux demonstrates why jazz has been so irresistible to listeners all over the world.”
“Ultrafaux breathes new life into jazz, while holding onto the sense of nostalgia that makes this genre so timeless and appealing in the first place.”
Ultrafaux Ensemble crosses the boundaries between style and genre, performing original music inspired by Gypsy swing, be-bop, Balkan music, Bluegrass, swing, funk, blues, choro, and musette. The group has thrilled audiences at top music festivals and concert halls all over the world both as a trio and as a larger ensemble featuring top guest musicians from the jazz, bluegrass, folk, classical, and world music scenes.
Ultrafaux has been featured at Festival Django Reinhardt in France, Django By The Sea, Django-A-Gogo, Napa Valley Jazz Society, The Kennedy Center, Midwest Gypsy Swingfest, Charm City Django Jazz Fest, Django Birthday Festival, Charm City Bluegrass Festival, The Djangoary Soiree, IMT Folk Series, Preston Jazz and Improvisation Festival, International Folk Alliance 2020, and Valhalla Boathouse Theater to name a few.
