Biréli Lagrène was born on September 4, 1966, in Soufflenheim, (Bas-Rhin) in a traditional gypsy family and community. He started playing the guitar at the age of four. When, at the age of eight, he covered Django Reinhardt’s repertoire, his relatives were already calling him a child prodigy. Winning a gypsy music festival (in Strasbourg) at the age of twelve gave him the opportunity to tour in Germany and, later, to record his live performance on the double LP Route to Django.

Typsy Gypsy is a member of the unparalleled Balkan Hot Step Soundsystem. He is from Belgium. His MySpace URL http://www.myspace.com/djtypsygypsy contains several mixtapes ready to rock your speakers!

The original sound of Ninja Folk! A fusion of fast paced all-original gypsy and classical melodies, laced with punk-rock moments, swing and reggae grooves, and a sprinkling of tourette's induced expletives. Sporting an undeniable all-star cast, led by Fiddle and Soprano Sax, and backed by Guitars, Bass, and Drums - it's chair smashing, pint glass throwing, tipsy gyspy mayhem of the highest order!
