The Crescent Katz off-the-cuff, no-rules, no-arrangements style hearkens back to the days when jazz was party music, and the party never ended. Conjuring memories of smoke-filled bars, Shakey's pizza parlors, and Old Town Sacramento, these West Coast musicians make you want to tap your toes and buy a round for the room. This high-energy group breathes new life into the music of the 1920s and ‘30s, playing popular tunes from Louis Armstrong, Kid Ory, Fats Waller and more. With the Crescent Katz hootin’, hollerin’ and downright irreverence aren’t just encouraged, they’re enforced.?? This line up features Brandon Au (trombone), Justin Au (trumpet), Marty Eggers (drums), Don Neely (reeds), Clint Baker (tuba), and J. Hansen (drums). (2025)
