6/24/22: Hot Club du Nax is a Gypsy jazz collective from Austria. The band was born during a series of jam sessions in 2016 at the Innsbruck bar known as The NAX.

“Everybody wants to be a cat,
because a cat’s the only cat who knows where it’s at.
Everybody’s pickin’ up on that feline beat,’cause everything else is obsolete.”

– Everybody Wants to Be a Cat by Floyd Huddleston & Al Rinker (from the movie The Aristocats)

The band’s covers are so thoroughly enjoyable, I’ve been bingeing their playlists since I discovered them. Isobel Cope’s jazzy, perfectly-laid-back vocals are making me long for a jazz gig. I so miss making that music!
