Gin, as most of us know it, is a strong colorless alcohol flavored with
juniper berries. Another less widespread meaning of the word djinn is a
mischievous spirit, often confined to a bottle due to reprehensible
acts. Dgiin is better known around Sonoma County as a band with a
unique style encompassing various cultures and influences and songs
sung mainly in French. The band originated 6 years ago in Santa Rosa
and is often described as French-Gypsy-Funk with a twist.

Since
2001, the Sun Kings have been thrilling audiences throughout the
Golden State with their uncanny channeling of the Beatles’ music.  With
a repertoire of over 100 songs, the Sun Kings shine with spot-on arrangements
and vocal harmonies, delivered with a driving energy that recalls the
earliest Beatle shows.  From clubs and festivals to concerts
and live radio performance, the band has won over fan and skeptic
alike with their obvious love of the music they play and delight

Little David Rose's thumpin' stand-up bass, the double-shuffle drumming of Lee Beary, and the bounce piano of Scott Lawrence provide the rhythmic foundation of the band's jump style. Riffing on top is the trumpet sound of Robert Dehlinger and Erv Ervin on the saxophone. These two fellas create the fireworks of vintage rhythm and blues. The charming Christopher Binnings' soulful vocals have become a trademark of Stompy Jones.
