Django Bells (2002)

EW's GRADE
A

Details Release Date: Sep 03, 2002; Lead Performance: The Gypsy Hombres

A violin-guitar-percussion trio led by Peter Hyrka emulating, yes, jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt, doing songs like ''Blue Christmas'' and ''Sleigh Ride'' with zip and swing. And with wit: ''Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer'' is a tangy tango. Holiday background music that'll also spark conversation.
