"And That's Jazz"
Our Guest Band for September

band

"And That's Jazz" is a hard-driving Chicago-Style traditional jazz ensemble that plays great American popular dance music of the 1920s, 30s and 40s. This six-piece group features vocals and instrumentals by such great American song masters as Jellyroll Morton, Duke Ellington, Fats Waller, Louis Armstrong, Hoagy Carmichael and Irving Berlin. The band's traditional front line consists of Cornet, Trombone and Clarinet and is supported by a classic rhythm section of Drums, Tuba and Banjo. "And That's Jazz" plays clubs, festivals, jazz societies and special functions throughout Northern California. and the band has just concluded a four year engagement at the Pasta Pelican Restaurant and Lounge in Alameda and now is continuing on at the Speisekammer Restaurant also in Alameda on the first Thursday of the month.
