…the finest concert of acoustic guitar I have ever seen”
John Shand Sydney Morning Herald
Lulo Reinhardt is one of the foremost authentic and distinctive musical voices in Gypsy music today, he is from a long line of musicians; the great-nephew of jazz legend Django Reinhardt and also the nephew of the gypsy violin master Shnuckenack Reinhardt.

Once you had only the Hot Club de France. Now you have the Hot Club of New York, Sydney, you name it – and that’s great because I love that music. But I like to find other great music too.”
Reinhardt grew up with gypsy swing. Even before he was given his first guitar at the age of five, he heard his family playing all the time. When his father, Bawo, started showing him the chords he needed to play along on those family sessions, Lulo became so besotted with the instrument that he could hardly put it down.
Playing guitar, he was discovering, was what Reinhardts did and the most famous example of this was his late great uncle, Django, the first European to be recognised in the home of jazz as a true master and innovator of the form, whose
