NEW CD CONTEMPORARY CLASSIC JAZZ
Eli & The Hot Six + Rebecca Sullivan is a grand new band that plays in a new style they call Contemporary Classic Jazz. Led by tuba virtuoso, Eli Newberger, they feature swinging New Orleans rhythms that propel brilliant instrumental soloists and a stunning singer, Rebecca Sullivan, to enchanting mini-ensembles and thrilling, full-throated evocations of traditional jazz favorites, show tunes and pop songs from the 1920s to the 1960s. The band draws its material equally from George Gershwin as from Louis Armstrong and doesn't shy away from rare ragtime like "Oh By Jingo" and esoteric Ellingtonia like "Sqeeze Me, But Don't Tease Me!"...
