Performance Notes | This four-piece jazz and swing outfit combine inter-war jazz numbers with verve, nerve, class and rakish banter! Top Shelf Jazz, the "Fine Purveyors of Filthy Swing", play jazz as it used to be: fast and louche!
Echoes of Al Bowlly and Fats Waller with a hint of gypsy swing, all rolled into one hot menagerie of crooning, tap dance, old world suave and rakish banter.
Arthur Foxaque leads the elegant entourage that is Top Shelf Jazz. His genuine 30's crooning voice creates an atmosphere harking back to prohibition parties and silver screen romances. |
