Doug Martin Avatar Ensemble at Porto Franco
The Avatar Ensemble, led by guitarist Doug Martin, was formed in early 2009 after Dougʼs return and relocation back from Shanghai, China and various international tours with gypsy guitarist Lulo Reinhardt.
The band performs a variety of high energy gypsy swing in the tradition of Django Reinhardt as well as hot Latin grooves and fiery gypsy waltzes. Rather than simply cover familiar hits of Djangoʼs era, Avatar Ensemble takes the tradition a step further by performing lesser heard gems of the genre as well as creating original material often implementing elements from other musical traditions of Europe, East Asia, South America and of course American Swing.
