Funky Dawgz 1/8/18 Cafe 9
CT based Nawlins-style brass band FD play anytime, anywhere. I have seen them at Bar, Gathering of the Vibes, Arch St Tavern, and even an impromptu session outside of a Trombone Shorty show. The lineup is fluid, and seems to evolve a la Preservation Hall. On this evening, two trombones, two saxes, trumpet, sousaphone, drums, and percussion ( that's right 8 players!) squoze themselves onto the tiny c-9 stage. Song selection was pretty standard: Don't Stop Till You Get Enough, Sweet Dreams ( are made of this), We Got The Fire, and a call-and-response stomper that I'll call Hay-O, Oh. Coming off of a bomb cyclone and a week of single digit temperatures, get out of the cold and bop to FD weaving through the crowd for a rousing rendition of When The Saints Go Marching In, it will warm you.
