BLUE RHYTHM BOYS @ BLUE MOON CAFE, Shepherdstown WV, Sunday, August   Message List

Blue Moon Sundays welcomes the Blue Rhythm Boys, Sunday, August 12th
 
 
Sunday, August 12th, The Blue Rhythm Boys will be in concert at the Blue Moon Cafe in Shepherstown, WV.  Blending the blues of Mississippi John Hurt with the hot club swing of Django Reinhardt, The Blue Rhythm Boys have delighted audiences with their own smoky mix of jazz, blues and hokum and their tight vocals and hot guitar playing since 1997.

 

Tom Mitchell, known for his hard-driving swing/jazz guitar playing and singing, has performed in the Washington, DC area for more than 20 years. He can also be seen performing with Brooks Teglers Hot Jazz, and his own quintet Double Scotch.

 

From 1993 till 2003 Tom toured internationally as guitarist with Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks. He can be heard on Dans recording Beatin the Heat with Elvis Costello, Rickie Lee Jones, Bette Midler, Brian Setzer and Tom Waits.

 

Jim Stephansons unique guitar style draws on the influences of Chet Atkins, Danny Gatton, Les Paul and Mississippi John Hurt. The Washington Post says: "Washington DC can lay claim to a heritage of great electric guitar players; Jim Stephanson is part of that legacy." Jim is a regular on both stage and studio in and around Washington DC.  He can be seen on guitar and vocals with local rockabilly legend Billy Hancock and with his own hot R&B band Jimmy & the Blue Dogs, who are featured on a number of compilations on the Hungry for Music label.

 

The Blue Rhythm Boys 2003 release, Monday Morning Blues, was recorded by renowned Folkways engineer, Pete Reiniger and features guest artists Vince McCool on trumpet, Brooks Tegler on drums, Phil Wiggins on harmonica and Kevin Wimmer on violin. About this recording, Folk/swingster Dan Hicks says: Swingin Acoustic Guitars, southern-tinged vocals, and the best repertoire East of Bucks County all combine to float your boat up the mighty Miss-i-sip!  To
