Stephane Wrembel is one of the most highly regarded guitarists in the world specialized in the style of legendary composer/guitarist Django Reinhardt. Born in Fountainebleau, France, Stephane learned his craft traveling the French countryside before graduating from Berklee College of Music in Boston. He has had a remarkable career, touring the world, while releasing 16 albums under his name and the nom de plume, The Django Experiment.  His original compositions have been featured in Midnight in Paris (“Bistro Fada”), Vicki Cristina Barcelona (“Big Brother”) and Rifkin’s Festival (original score).   Midnight in Paris received the Grammy Award®  for “Best Compilation Soundtrack.” Stephane was selected by award-winning composer/producer Hans Zimmer to perform at the 2012 Academy Awards® as part of his “All Star Band” which also included Esperanza Spalding, Pharrell, and Shelia E.  Stephane recorded Gypsy Rumble and toured nationally with famed mandolinist/composer David Grisman.  He has opened or performed with Elvis Costello, Patti Smith, The Roots, Medeski Martin & Wood, Me’shell Ndegeocello, John Schofield, Larry Keel, Stochelo Rosenberg, Sam Bush and more.

In 2019, Wrembel released the highly regarded Django L’Impressionniste, featuring 17 of Reinhardt’s preludes for solo guitar, followed by a book of his transcriptions in 2021.  He is the only guitarist in the world to perform these 17 preludes in their entirety. 

Since 2003, Wrembel has produced the Django a Gogo Festival, bringing together some of the finest musicians in the world to celebrate the Sinti guitar style to perform in prestigious venues such as Carnegie Hall and The Town Hall. 

Stephane’s world-class band includes Josh Kaye on guitar; Ari Folman-Cohen on bass, and Nick Anderson on drums.

Quotes:
"Perhaps the most creative improviser in Gypsy jazz today, Mr. Wrembel plays the guitar with a rich and colorful lyricism." – New York Times

“Stephane Wrembel just might be the greatest acoustic guitarist alive.”—The Aquarian

"For North Americans, Stephane Wrembel represents the living face of gypsy jazz."--New York Observer

"...a  true gypsy guitar master. His band of accomplished artists unveiled a seemingly effortless, unspoken musical thread, and shared an untouchable virtuoso mastery of an underappreciated genre of jazz. Wrembel’s clear passion, superb tonality and stunning finger work make the most mind-blowing guitar lines appear elementary...A wonderful celebration of pure musical spirit." –Music Connection

“The mind-bendingly rapid melodies Stephane provided to the set’s final song were an exclamation point for an audience that was enthralled for 60 minutes of unforgettable music.”—Parklife DC
