The Milk Crate Bandits are back at The Main in 2017! This time celebrating the music of King Oliver! Joe 'King' Oliver was Louis Armstrong's mentor and one of the most important figures in early jazz. The first set of the evening will consist mostly of music from the 1923 King Oliver Creole Jazz band sessions. The music is hot Chicago and New Orleans jazz featuring such classics as 'Snake Rag', 'Weather Bird Rag', 'Canal Street Blues', 'New Orleans Stomp' and whole heap of other great compositions!
This is an intimate duo concert featuring young trumpeter Kayden Gorden (Trumpet) and Jack Ray (Banjo) the second set will feature brand new original compostions as well as arrangements and tunes from the forthcoming EP 'The Neighbourhood' recorded in New Orleans in 2016!
