About the event
The Kent Street Riverside Stompers play jazz predominantly from the 1920s-1940s. At that time, it was not uncommon to use a bass sax as the bass instrument; a notable feature of bands led by Bix Beiderbecke and some of the Louis Armstrong combos. The feel is a laid back, lilting and loping rhythm. And of course, the era was a truly golden time for song writing. The band has a wonderful front line of very talented players – Steve Searle, Mike Weise, and Lindsay Timms, whilst in the back line, in addition to Bob Appleyard on vocals and drums, and Tony Eardley on piano and Martin Jones on bass sax, Aaron Woolley joins the group on guitar. You are sure to enjoy a program of classic jazz numbers and wonderful vocals.
