The Gypsy Moth Trio with Daisy Castro - "Daisy Castro has a musical and a daring style of playing that belies her young years." Tim Kliphuis. "Daisy plays with a beautiful tone and superb feeling." Walt Smith - Havana Swing Band

Young violinist, Daisy Castro, started playing violin at the age of 6. She started out the usual way, with Suzuki and classical, but quickly learned to play by ear whatever her classical instructors could not teach her. The same year that she started playing, she took a trip to France with her parents, where she was first introduced to Gypsy Jazz. Intrigued as a listener from the start, over the years she has found this beautiful and passionate music to be a perfect fit for her playing style. She recorded and released her first solo CD, "Gypsy Moth" at the age of 13, and fittingly, it bears a strong Gypsy Jazz influence.
