Crazy Sound

Spearheading the young generation in Lorraine, France, international icon Samson Schmitt is one of the most eminent gypsy guitarists of today. Samson has had music in his blood since birth, and it shows. His universe reflects the very essence of gypsy jazz - music anchored by deep roots, profoundly human and altruistic, yet modern and in perfect tune with its times. The guitarist's characteristic imprint lies as much in the aerial virtuosity of his phrasing and generous compositions as it does in the way he shares those qualities with the stellar accompanists featured alongside him, including Gino Roman, Mayo Hubert and Ludovic Beier.
