Mike Davis brings his New York City based New Wonders septet to their Tri-State debut. The band vividly invokes America’s Jazz Age during the 1920s, when jazz was the soundtrack for dramatic national changes and played a central part in people's dreams, adventures and romances. The band gives exquisite attention to musical detail, and their deep passion for original recordings is evident in each performance. (Mike named the band for the model of cornet - "New Wonder" - played by Bix Beiderbecke). Mike Davis & the New Wonders have garnered the praise of Downbeat Magazine and the New York Times.
