SUMMARY:An Evening with Soggy Po Boys
DESCRIPTION:New Hampshire-based SOGGY PO BOYS will bring the musical traditions of New Orleans to the Concerts for a Cause stage on Saturday\, October 18th at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Brunswick\, 1 Middle Street\, Brunswick to raise money for Oasis Free Clinics and the Immigrant Legal Advocacy Project. \nWith a contemporary New Orleans sound\, Soggy Po Boys explore the vast musical traditions of New Orleans and expand their repertoire to look beyond NOLA jazz. This young octet plays traditional New Orleans jazz\, the kind with fluttering clarinet solos and swingin’ shout-along choruses\, and playful bursts of brass. But they’ve also got the soul\, the spirit and the swing of street-parade chants\, classic blues\, Meters funk\, rocking rumbas\, even calypso\, noting New Orleans is the northernmost Caribbean city. Suffice it to say\, the music is hot and driving when it’s fast\, and sultry when it’s slow. You will also hear the heavy influence of the New Orleans sound in their original tunes. The main thing the band aims for is accessibility with their music. Soprano saxophonist and clarinetist Eric Klaxton describes their sound as\, “Whether or not you know the tune ahead of time\, by the time we’re done playing it four minutes later\, the melodies are the kind of thing you can walk away whistling.” \nSoggy Po Boys have quickly become an institution. They are spreading the good news of New Orleans music across the northeast and beyond\, playing at concert halls and street corners; music festivals and burlesque festivals; bars and libraries; wherever the party requires. Part of the beauty of New Orleans music is that it’s celebrated and appreciated wherever it goes\, from the street to the theater. \nThe Soggy Po Boys are: \nShaina Schwartz : Vocals\nJim Dozet : Vocals + Guitar\nEric Klaxton : Clarinet + Saxophones\nNick Mainella : Tenor Saxophone\nJosh Gagnon : Trombone\nMike Effenberger : Piano\nScott Kiefner : Bass\nBrian Waterhouse : Drums \nTickets are $25 in advance\, $30 at the door\, and $10 for students/children.
