The Joscho Stephan Trio is among the most exciting formations in the acoustic guitar scene. Characterized by the masterful guitar artistry of bandleader Joscho Stephan, a modern evolution of classic swing in the style of Django Reinhardt emerges through collaboration with Sven Jungbeck (guitar) and Volker Kamp (double bass).
The trio not only impresses with newly interpreted classics of the genre, but also with original compositions that integrate elements from Latin, classical, pop, and rock.
This creative mix delights a broad audience and showcases the trio as musical visionaries.
The production "Paris – Berlin" was recorded as a direct-to-disc vinyl recording in the legendary Hansa Studios in Berlin. In addition to this album, the trio has released several live albums that document the energy of their performances. Joscho's successful YouTube channel with nearly 40 million views is summarized musically in the best-of album "Playlist," which contains recordings exclusively from this channel.
The trio has played sold-out concerts in Germany and appeared at renowned festivals such as the Leverkusener Jazztage and the Rheingau Music Festival. Internationally, the trio regularly travels to Italy, Poland, and Spain, and is planning an extensive tour that will include both the USA and Australia.
Joscho Stephan has collaborated with artists such as Bireli Lagrène, Stochelo Rosenberg, Tommy Emmanuel, Daniel Hope, Peter Kraus, as well as guitarists Richard Smith and Rory Hoffman in the Transatlantic Guitar Trio. Notably, he was the only European guitarist to participate in the renowned "George Benson Camp," where Al Di Meola, Steve Lukather, and Tommy Emmanuel were also represented. Joscho Stephan also performed with Frank Vignola and John Jorgenson at the legendary Birdland Jazz Club in New York, where they played a total of eight shows – another highlight in his international career.
