"Les Doigts de l’Homme" is a French gypsy jazz ensemble renowned for their skillful melding of traditional manouche musical heritage with a wide array of contemporary influences. Founded in 2003, the band initially drew inspiration from the legendary gypsy jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt, which is vividly reflected in their album "1910," a homage to Reinhardt's music and era. However, what sets "Les Doigts de l’Homme" apart is their adept fusion of genres, from rock to world music, all while maintaining the essence of the jazz manouche style.
Over the years, the band has evolved and solidified its unique sound, which is masterfully showcased in their more recent works such as "Le cœur des vivants" and "Mumbo Jumbo." With each new release, "Les Doigts de l’Homme" continues to charm audiences with their technical prowess and musical versatility. Their lively performances and skillful improvisations make them a dynamic force in the contemporary jazz scene. The title "Les doigts dans la prise" cleverly plays on words, suggesting both the literal meaning of 'fingers in the socket' and their electrifying impact on listeners. "Chante Avec Les Doigts de l'Homme" further demonstrates the band's collaborative nature and their ability to engage with their audience through the universal language of music.
