We Love Django is a loving tribute to Django Reinhardt and the Hot Club of France. This not-to-be-missed ensemble is comprised of three highly accomplished musicians who just happen to live in our midst! Paul Landsberg is a contemporary jazz composer and guitarist originally from Bronx, New York. He taught for eight years at the Berklee College of Music. In his thirty years as a performing guitarist he has performed with a number of legendary jazz and contemporary artists. Mike Rud has lived and taught all over Canada, thriving on the music scenes of Victoria, Vancouver, Edmonton, Ottawa, and Montreal. He studied in New York City with the great jazz guitarist Jim Hall, earned his Master’s degree from McGill, and went on to teach there and at a number of other music schools. Doug Stephenson has been a staple on the Canadian music scene for decades, playing bass and guitar in Vancouver, Nelson, Calgary, and in the Banff Springs Hotel house band. Always in demand, Doug is widely known to be among Canada’s finest musicians.

Catch them together on stage for an unforgettable evening of music in the Hot Club Jazz tradition!
