Truth In Jazz Orchestra

May 22 gig moved to May 29 We found that our May 22 gig at the West Side Inn conflicted with the appearance of the United States Air Force Band of Flight "Night Flight" Jazz Ensemble concert on the same date. We moved our gig to the following Tuesday, May 29. Come back to see us then! While you are at it, be sure to check out this FREE concert by one of our top military jazz ensembles! It will be held at Mona Shores High School in Norton Shores on Tuesday, May 22. Here is a link for details: http://www.wmcw.org/ Here is the band's website: http://www.bandofflight.af.mil/ensembles/BandEnsembleBio.asp?EnsembleID=68 We'll see you at the "Night Flight" concert May 22, and then TIJO on May 29! Great month of jazz in Muskegon!
Fronted by West Michigan's legendary drummer, Tim Froncek, this group of 16 of the area's top musicians plays charts from the classic era of the big bands, up to today's best charts from the hottest writers. The band was organized by Dave Collee, Ed Spier, and Matt Lintula, who wanted a group able to play pro-level big band literature, and have fun doing it! We have assembled a great bunch of area musicians who enjoy the challenge of playing great charts in a large ensemble. Playing a mixture of classic jazz big band pieces from the Buddy Rich, Woody Herman, and other big band libraries, plus some VERY recent charts from Gordon Goodwin and others.
