Since the birth of the Jazz Punishments Big Band, the group has been enjoying monthly gigs at Aurora Borealis and some other fun outings including the Edmonds Jazz Walk. Last night, December 27th, the Aurora Borealis monthly performance was augmented by a Pro-Am Big Band of students along with the section leaders of the JP Big Band. We began the merriment around 6:30 PM and the place was packed the whole night. Big thanks to Danny Kolke and Jazz Clubs NW for helping keep the flames alive for a Pro-Am culture. Everyone remarked how much fun it was and while it's a bit of work, I agree it was a worthwhile endeavor. Here are some photos of the group. I'm sure these youngsters will love jazz for life.
Jazz Punishments members for the night included RHYTHM: Michael Glynn, Josh Setala, Milo Petersen, Dan Taylor, SAXES: Travis Ranney, Kyle Gaul, Kyle Bainbridge, Max Bennett, TROMBONES: Andrew Sumabat, Jack Hillman, William Chance, Conner Eisenmenger, TRUMPETS: Jake Bergevin, Dylan Smith, Conner Eng, Christine Eisenmenger.
