Shazam: 8½ Souvenirs and "Kazango"

8½ Souvenirs, an Austin band of the 1990s that disbanded about 2000, brings us the random tune for today. While called an American swing jazz band led by French-turned-American lead guitarist Olivier Giraud, it was clearly influenced by gypsy jazz and other European and Latin American styles. The band's name came from the Fellini movie 8½ and the Django Reinhardt song Souvenirs. This song, Kazango, is from 8½ Souvenirs' 1995 album Happy Feet.
