The new release is called "I Love Paris," and it features Denver vocalist Kristi Stice. The band's website calls it a "tribute to The Hot Club of France, French music and swingin' Jazz." And the songs are rearranged in the style of "Gypsy Jazz," a musical genre popularized by guitarist and composer Django Reinhardt in Paris during the 1930s and 40s.

Stice and the band perform songs from the new album at DazzleJazz in Denver on March 28 at 6 and 8 p.m.

Stice and Reed spoke with Colorado Matters host Ryan Warner.
