DESCRIPTION:Fri | Nov 7	\n\n	\n		\n		Paxton/Spangler Band “Trick Bag” CD Release Show\n	\n	\n\n\n	\n		\n	Sets at 7pm & 9pm | $25 Cover \n\n	\n\n\n	\n		\n			\n							RESERVE TABLE\n					\n\n	\n\n\n\n			\n	\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n\n\n\n	\n\n\n			\n	\n	\n		\n		About the Artist\n	\n	\n\n\n\n	\n\n\n			\n	\n\n			\n	\n	\n		\n	Paxton/Spangler Band “Trick Bag” out Sept 1 digitally\, September 26 for CD/LP Release Event at Blue LLama Jazz Club & Restaurant. \n"The Paxton/Spangler Band work a couple hundred dates a year in and around Detroit\, also traveling to perform regularly in Toledo\, Bowling Green (OH)\, Columbus (OH)\, Pittsburgh\, and of course throughout Michigan. Tbone and RJ are seasoned pros with decades of doing this under their respective belts. Matt\, Trevor and Sean are some of the very best young players on the Detroit scene today. \nI’ve been making music with John “Tbone” Paxton for many years. We used to play gigs backing up New Orleans singer/songwriter/guitar player Earl King when he’d travel north without a band. The title cut “Trick Bag” is a nod to those great days. \nThese instrumental tracks celebrate the excellent young musicians that Tbone and I hang out with these days. Check out Alex Colista on alto sax and Charlie Miller on trumpet on “Hard Times\,” a tune we associate with Detroit trumpet great Marcus Belgrave. Our longtime guitarist Matt LoRusso contributes the lone original on this collection\, “Rouge Dispensary\,” a nice showcase for his playing. Drummer Sean Perlmutter drives the band into a frenzy on “Jan Jan.” This is a song we associate with Grant Green\, also has a Detroit connection in that it was originally recorded by The Fabulous Counts\, an instrumental soul/funk group from Detroit. Baritone sax player Goode Wyche III takes a strong ride on that one\, too. Bassist Trevor Lamb offers strong support with the soulful bass line to “Way Back Home” by the Crusaders. \nThis is basically the third recorded offering from Tbone\, et al\, and the first officially under the name the Paxton/Spangler Band. Some funky stuff\, some mellow stuff\, some bluesy stuff. We hope that you dig it."\n-RJ Spangler \nPaxton/Spangler Band\nJohn “Tbone” Paxton- vocals\, trombone\nRJ Spangler- congas and tambourine\nMatt LoRusso- guitar\nTrevor Lamb- double bass\nSean Perlmutter- drums \n\n	\n\n\n\n			\n	\n	\n		\n	\n				\n					\n	\n	\n\n\n	\n		\n			\n							RESERVE TABLE\n					\n\n	\n\n\n\n	\n\n\n	\n		\n	\n\nLEARN MORE
