Frank Vignola's Hot Club (incredible sample video link of the show included below!) is a tribute tour by his quintet in celebration of legendary gypsy guitarist Django Reinhardt's music on what would have been his 100th birthday next year. The group also features French accordionist Julien LeBreau, Zach Brock on violin, Gary Mazaroppi on bass, and Vinny Raniolo on Guitar.
