For this special performance at Jazz Fremantle the band will feature Jessie Gordon voice, Pete Jeavons double bass, Aaron Deacon & Lachlan Gear acoustic guitars and Emily Gelineau violin.
Formed in 2015, Sassafras combines toe-tapping swing, breakneck gypsy classics, wistful french ballads and re-worked jazz standards in a vibrant and engaging mix of acoustic music, all performed with the dazzling virtuosity and passion that is intrinsic to the gypsy jazz tradition.
You can expect to hear music from Django Reinhardt, Stephane Grapelli, Edith Piaf, Cole Porter, Charles Trenet and Jacques Brel (to name only a few).
For seven years in a row, Sassafras has presented a season of shows as part of the Perth Fringeworld Festival and the band released their debut, eponymous album in 2021.
