Right off the streets of New Orleans, Tuba Skinny brings the best in traditional early jazz, blues and swing to audiences around the world. While they’ve become known as world-class interpreters of traditional jazz, over the years they’ve branched out into jug band music, spirituals, country blues, string band music, ragtime, and New Orleans R&B. Their approach is a true reflection of Americana, encompassing the full genealogy of popular American music from an early 20th century perspective.
Tickets are $15 at the door. Children and students get in free! This performance is brought to you in conjunction with the W. Campbell Edmonds Concert Series and supported in part by the Town of Big Stone Gap. A talkback will follow the performance. For more information and to make reservations, please visit proartva.org
The band is composed by Shaye Cohn (Cornet), Barnabus Jones (Trombone), Todd Burdick (Tuba), Craig Flory (Clarinet), Gregory Sherman (Guitar and Vocals), Max Bien-Kahn (Banjo), Robin Rapuzzi (Washboard), and Erika Lewis (Vocals and Bass Drum).
This engagement of Tuba Skinny is made possible in part through the Jazz Touring Network program of Mid Atlantic Arts with support from the National Endowment for the Arts.
