The Duke Robillard Band with Sunny Crownover and Billy Novick

April 8, 2017

Tonight’s special show features Duke Robillard on guitar and vocals joined by his band – Bruce Bears on piano, Brad Hallen on bass, Mark Teixeira on drums, plus two additional members – the wonderful Sunny Crownover singing and swinging plus the incredible Billy Novick on alto sax, clarinet and an occasional jazz penny whistle. The material is basically ’20s and ’30s tunes both well known and obscure, blues, and a few cool vintage Latin tunes thrown in for good measure. The blues tunes are of real vintage variety from the 20s to the 40s as well as swinging instrumentals that feature the brilliant virtuosity of the boys in the band. This show coincides with last weekend to view Duke’s art exhibition at Blackstone River Theatre.
