JAZZ SUMMER

Futur Swing enters the world of gypsy swing with a modern perspective. Rather than simply preserving tradition, the band explores new paths in interpretation and improvisation. By combining violin, saxophone, and the unconventional guitar banjo, they create a fresh sound inspired by Django Reinhardt’s legacy while venturing into new harmonies and rhythms. Futur Swing bridges tradition with a modern musical vision.

Michal Wroblevski – Saxophone
Martin Hrubec – Guitar
