Ten Cat Trio

A Fresh, Intimate Take on Ten Cat Swing!

When your event calls for something a little more laid-back, acoustically driven, or uniquely atmospheric, our gypsy-style trio delivers the perfect sound. This versatile setup—two acoustic guitars and a vocalist—draws from the rich tradition of jazz manouche, blending vintage swing, soulful vocals, and intricate guitar interplay into an elegant and engaging musical experience.

Why Choose the Trio? Smaller spaces, big style: Perfect for intimate venues, patios, or cozy lounges where a full band might be too much. Light and unobtrusive: Designed to enhance the ambiance while still allowing conversation—ideal for cocktail hours, dinners, or networking events. Vintage charm: The acoustic sound and gypsy flair bring a nostalgic, old-world aesthetic to weddings, art shows, or themed gatherings. Budget-friendly flexibility: A more compact group that still offers the warmth and sophistication of live jazz. Pop-up ready: The trio can fit in unique or unconventional spaces, from backyard soirées to pop-up performances and open-air markets. Daytime elegance: A beautiful fit for brunches, gallery events, winery tastings, and other relaxed daytime settings. Gypsy jazz lovers’ dream: Some clients simply prefer the stripped-down, guitar-driven swing of the trio!

What to Expect with the Ten Cat Trio: Intricate guitar rhythms and solos in the style of Django Reinhardt, lyrical, expressive vocals with a vintage touch, a curated setlist of swing standards, jazz classics, and Ten Cat favorites—reimagined with acoustic artistry.

Whether you’re planning a stylish soirée or simply want something a little more refined and romantic, the trio brings the same heart and musicianship you expect from Ten Cat Swing—just with a fresh twist.
