Early Jazz
Who needs the dancers? Billy Novick's Blue Syncopators brought down
the house for seven sold-out shows at the Kennedy Center in
Washington, DC this past February. "Bringing in Boston-based jazz
expert Bily Novick and his band...was a brilliant move. The result is
that for its musical splenders alone, "Gatsby" is a remarkable event,
an evening of explosive, ticklish and swooning live jazz (songs of
the era, filled out with Novick's compositions), played with a verve
to spark your thirst for hooch." - The Washington Post.Come listen
to this all-star band of New Enlgand musicians (with the sultry
vocals of Sunny Crownover) bring the 1920s to life!

An outstanding vocalist with a wide range,
Sunny
gives a flawless impression of Adelaide Hall's Creole Love Call, and as a red hot Mama with St. Louis Blues,
backed by Mike Peipman's searing trumpet.
Sunny and Billy's poignant scatting
on Wild Man Blues characterizes a touching, emotional telephone conversation between
the two
lovers. |
