Vendredi's Bag comprises a group of musicians who love Django and Jobim right along with Irving and Miles. Throw in some Eddie Harris and Dr. John and you have a good sense of what their bag is all about. They draw songs from across continents and ages, incorporating jazz standards, Latin grooves, bebop, R&B, New Orleans funk, and gypsy swing into their performances. The group is based in Olympia, WA.
