Founded in 2000 by Charles Williams, The Bonaventure Quartet originally consisted of four members. The vision was to be an acoustic jazz band that created music in the style of the Django Reinhardt & The Hot Club of France. With the addition of singer Amy Pike, the band began incorporating American styles of jazz along with original music. The band now consists of up to eight members but can often be found performing as a quintet, quartet, or trio, depending on the occasion.
