DOUBLE BILL CONCERT EVENT IN AN INTIMATE SETTING
Hot Club of Saratoga ~ Heard ~ Special Guest Giacomo Smith
A "not to be missed" one time only musical event.
Clarinetist Giacomo Smith, a native Saratogian, returns home from across the pond for a "not to be missed" one time only musical event. Hot Club of Saratoga will welcome Giacomo for a set of 30's and 40's jazz. Heard, a capital region world jazz band, will collaborate with Giacomo on the second set.
Many of you may remember last years event at Spring St. Gallery with Hot Club of Saratoga and Giacomo that got rave reviews after the show. This year were once again taking advantage of Giacomos visit home and adding Heard to the bill. If you enjoyed last years event you wont want to miss this one. If you missed it last year, come out August 28 for this dynamic event.
GIACOMO SMITH
Since growing up in Saratoga Springs, Giacomo has called London his home for years where he is now a full time musician. When you don't find him at his home club, London's "Kansas Smitty's", with his group of the same name, you may find him playing elsewhere around London. He has been a regular at Le QuecumBar - Hot Club of London, London's premier gypsy swing club, where he has played with London's and Europe's top players. In his time in the UK, he has performed at London's major jazz venues, (Ronnie Scott's, 606 Club, Vortex), the Hackney Empire, Waterloo Vaults, and the Royal Albert Hall Elgar Room.
HOT CLUB OF SARATOGA
Hot Club of Saratoga, Saratoga/Capital Region's premier gypsy swing ensemble, was described this way by Caffe Lena:
"These guys took Saratoga by storm a few years ago, suddenly showing up everywhere from sidewalk cafes to the fanciest of society balls. Everyone loves the way they reprise the repertoire of Django and Stephane's Quintette du Hot Club de France."
HEARD
Energetic, joyous, fresh, fun...Heard's sound aims to waken up your ears, enliven your heart, and even get you up and dancing! Original world music with jazz roots, influences from West Africa, Brazil, places in between and points beyond...
A limited number of tickets will be sold for this intimate one night only venue.
