Stomperz to say farewell to May in Surprise
Posted
The seven-piece Sun City Stomperz Dixieland Jazz Band plays at I&J Fountain Restaurant’s last live music performance of May.
Their live show is from 6 to 8 p.m. Saturday, May 27 at the restaurant, 12221 W. Bell Road.
Swinging since 2005, the Stomperz concentrate on the music of the early 20th century, the beginnings of what has become known as America’s only original art form.
Featuring the songs of Louis Armstrong, Jelly Roll Morton, Scott Joplin, Hoagy Carmichael, Fats Waller and the like, the band’s ensemble work and solos invoke memories of the glory days of Bourbon Street.
Featured on trumpet is Dan Reed, known for his many performances throughout the Valley, from salsa bands to swing bands, concert bands and philharmonic orchestras.
