The day before their concert at "Django in June", an annual guitar festival near Boston Massachusetts USA, these gents did us all the honor of doing their 'warmup' in the open for all to hear. They were working out their intros and outros when a crowd gathered - so they played a set of music and invited guest Robin Nolan up for the last two songs. This impromptu concert/jam was treat for all. Adrien is playing the prototype of a guitar which I was inspired to build after a conversation with Mathieu Chatelain about what he likes in a gypsy jazz guitar.

Beautiful tune, can't place it... but I'm pretty sure it's not Rue du Languedoc (which is an original tune by Sebastien Giniaux featured on Selmer #607)
