==About Hot House West Swing Orchestra==
The Hot House West Swing Orchestra combines stellar vocals, a big band of horns, and a Django-inspired rhythm section sound consisting of two guitars, bass, and drums. Their guitar-driven interplay, acrobatic horn lines, punchy hits, and collective improvisation alluding to the streets of New Orleans captures a holistic definition of swing unmatched by any other group.
Often seen accompanied by dancers, Hot House West knows how to groove, pulling listeners to their feet and drawing them to the dance floor as each piece develops and unfolds. Influenced by the sound first championed by Django Reinhardt, the music of Hot House West is fresh, memorable, and captures the improvisational spirit of jazz.
