Bringing her fantastic gypsy-swing project to The Bear Club, Riketté Genesis is a jazz vocalist on the rise. Known for her heartfelt and soulful performances and a vibrant presence on the Soho jazz scene, she has graced the stages of iconic venues such as Ronnie Scott's, The Jazz Cafe, and The Southbank Centre. Riketté's cohesive productions run the gamut from smoky, jazz-filled vibes to straight-up 1920s/40s swing and beyond.
Inspired by jazz greats like Billie Holiday, Anita O’Day, and Sarah Vaughan, Riketté’s love for jazz shines through in this performance, which brings the spirited rhythms of gypsy jazz to life. With lively improvisation, intricate guitar melodies, and soulful vocals, this show blends the acoustic charm of Django Reinhardt-style swing with smoky jazz atmospheres. From laid-back, bluesy tunes to upbeat, foot-tapping swing, the performance captures the dynamic and timeless energy of gypsy jazz.
Featuring Riketté Genesis (vocals), Ben Danzig (guitar), Chris Hyde-Harrison (double bass), and Magnus Pickering (trumpet).
