JAZZ SERIES ~ PICK-A-RIB THREE: THE MUSIC OF BENNY GOODMAN

Join us for the first concert of our JAZZ SERIES with Pick-a-Rib Three playing the music of Benny Goodman!

Traditional jazz without a net! Jimmie Noone, Edmond Hall, Barney Bigard, George Lewis—the list goes on of clarinetists who all at some point played their music alongside just piano and drums. Benny Goodman led the most famous of these trios with Teddy Wilson and Gene Krupa. The Pick-A-Rib Three, in fact, take their name from a Goodman song.

Twin Cities clarinetist Tony Balluff and drummer Dave Michael from Southside Aces, along with Gnarly Bard's favorite jazz pianist Ted Godbout will have you submerged in 1920s Decatur Street in New Orleans, 1930s New York penthouse parties, and 1940s Los Angeles jazz clubs.
