Stephane Wrembel


French-born, Brooklyn-based guitarist and composer Stephane Wrembel returns to Hendershot’s one year after he wowed a local crowd at the same spot. Wrembel, whose original music draws heavily on Django Reinhardt-esque gypsy jazz but also features classical and even psychedelic rock flavors, saw his profile rise after his work was featured in two Woody Allen films, Vicky Cristina Barcelona and Midnight in Paris. His most recent full-length release, 2014’s Dreamers of Dreams, will be followed soon by a new collection, Live in India. Wrembel’s live show is unpredictable and full of energy, featuring his crack touring band: standup bassist Ari Forman-Cohen, guitarist Thor Jensen and drummer Nick Anderson.
