Sinti Rhythm - 1:00 p.m.
Sinti Rhythm is an acoustic, hot-jazz quartet performing vintage swing in the style of the great Django Reinhardt. Their repertoire includes standards from the Great American Songbook, lesser-known gems from the ’20s and ’30s, compositions by Django, and original pieces. Their instrumentation is clarinet, two guitars, and string bass…played with a propulsive, infectious beat that hearkens back to the pre-war heyday of classic jazz.
Sold By Weight Brass Band - 4:00 p.m.
Sold By Weight Brass Band brings groovy voicings to a wide mix of composers. From Duke Ellington to Led Zeppelin, to Youngblood Brass to Wulfpeck and Jellyroll Morton, done with an eclectic brass handle attached, so you can carry them off into the funky NOLA-influenced bayou in your mind. Who needs guitars!?
