George Simmonds and the Squintet are serving up real New Orleans funky vibes that will kick your evening into overdrive with the big, brassy sounds of the Crescent City!

"Known across the UK for sets brimming with the best in Balkan Gypsy, Electro Swing and Global Beats, don't let DJ Sacha Dieu fool you into thinking this is all he's got. Genre-bending and diverse, there's no doubt you'll be dancing". (Womad)
