This week’s Quarantunes performance on December 25 at 2 p.m. CST comes from The Hot Club of Storyville, a manouche/ New Orleans jazz band that combines their passion for music with a shared love of urban exploration. Led by violinist/composer Hanna Mignano, the group is heavily rooted in the gypsy jazz tradition in the style of Django Reinhardt’s Quintette de Hot Club du France, while drawing on much inspiration from New Orleans trad jazz, Western swing, Brazilian choro and the occult.
