Ducato Piotrowski – Guitar Born into a Roma family in Poland, Ducato Piotrowski is a self-taught guitarist whose discovery of Django Reinhardt profoundly shaped his musical path. Now one of the UK’s first-call gypsy jazz guitarists, Ducato regularly performs at leading venues including Pizza Express Jazz Club and the Royal Festival Hall. His expressive technique, authentic style, and deep dedication to the genre bring passion and fire to every performance. Harry Diplock – Guitar London-based guitarist Harry Diplock is a leading light of the UK gypsy jazz scene. A master of both rhythm and lead guitar, Harry’s passion for improvisation has shaped his musical journey from his teenage years experimenting with funk and rock to becoming a dedicated jazz performer in London. After moving from Devon in 2012 to study Musical Instrument Building, he immersed himself in the capital’s vibrant gypsy jazz circuit. His dynamic playing, creativity, and instinct for spontaneous composition (including a track featured on BBC Introducing) make every performance fresh and electrifying. Francesca Confortini – Vocals An internationally active and stylistically versatile vocalist, Francesca Confortini brings charisma, elegance, and soul to the stage. She leads and performs with numerous acclaimed projects, including Gypsy Dynamite, London Soul Section, Swingpunks Jazz Big Band, Jazz Silhouettes, and her funk project WSFB. Francesca has performed at prestigious venues such as Wembley Stadium, Ronnie Scott’s, The Roundhouse, Pizza Express Jazz Club, and Monaco’s Le Bar American. With collaborations spanning top-tier session musicians and producers, she is currently recording her debut solo EP under the name Fran. Her voice effortlessly crosses genres, from gypsy jazz and swing to soul and funk, captivating audiences wherever she performs. Eleazar Ruiz Spreafico – Double Bass Argentine bassist Eleazar Ruiz Spreafico is one of London’s most in-demand jazz musicians. Having performed at Ronnie Scott’s, the Royal Albert Hall, Royal Festival Hall, and the EFG London Jazz Festival, Eleazar’s rich tone and stylistic versatility make him a cornerstone of the UK jazz scene. His recording credits include appearances on Netflix (The Crown, Hurricane) and Amazon productions (Lucky Man, The Collection). Deeply influenced by jazz greats such as Oscar Pettiford and Ray Brown, his playing blends precision, swing, and soulful depth. Whether you’re a devoted jazz enthusiast or simply looking for a memorable live music experience, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy world-class musicians up close in the intimate surroundings of the ActOne Lounge.PT2Htbc2026-05-08
