Romacaleo

Romacaleo approaches the soulful Gypsy Jazz of Reinhardt with a fresh, innovative yet historically rooted twist. Until the 2nd World War the Gypsies and Jews of Europe would frequently collaborate musically, their styles indelibly influencing each other. Romacaleo has reignited this relationship through the incorporation of infectiously capricious Klezmer and the swing of Benny Goodman. In addition, Romacaleo has deftly incorporated Scottish folk into our repertoire, an innovation that makes the band truly unique as an outfit - a testament to Glasgow's open multi-culturalism.
