DESCRIPTION:
The Blackstick band, playing Sweet Sue and Georgia Cabin, was led by Evan Arntzen and included his brother Arnt and their grandfather Lloyd. They were outstanding! It was especially good to see younger musicians (you too, Lloyd?) to continue supporting the traditional jazz. The other band members were Benji Bohannon, drums; James Meger, bass; and Josh Roberts, guitar. We visited the festival as part of our Jazz-N-Aweigh tour (http://www.jazznaweigh.com) Video by Bill Schneider
