In addition, we’ve expanded the workshops being offered to guitarists, violinists, bassists and accordionists, providing the opportunity to learn from the masters. And, as always, there are numerous impromptu djam sessions popping up wherever one turns, as the entire village of Langley, on beautiful Whidbey Island, just a ferry ride from Seattle, gets into the swing of things. Please come join us for an unforgettable musical experience. This is guaranteed to be the finest festival yet!
Happy 10th- DjangFest Northwest!
Happy 100th- Django Reinhardt!!! Merci Beaucoup Monsieur!
