The Already In Berlin Band

Straight forward hard-swinging string-led early jazz.

Straight forward hard-swinging string-led early jazz with London’s newest classic jazz band. A drummerless line-up with a collective spirit of music-making with all the texture and nuance of music anchored in pre-war jazz styles.
Capturing the spirit of classic jazz pioneers from each side of the Atlantic with a programme of greats from the pens of Louis Armstrong, Sidney Bechet Django Reinhardt and more… music from an era when jazz was revolutionary, controversial, and very “hot”.
Fronted by Dave Kelbie of The Dime Notes fame, Evan Christopher’s Django a la Creole and Don Vappie’s Jazz Creole, an unstoppable force on rhythm guitar with a sound described as “the rhythmic rumbling of a folksy freight train”
On violin is London Django Collective’s curator, composer, educator and fast becoming a great of Jazz violin, Matt Holborn; Legend of London’s Classic jazz and African music scenes on guitar John Kelly; and anchored by bassist Lorenzo Morabito.
