Texas native Colin Hancock has been an enthusiast for the music and methods of traditional jazz since his earliest days, including re-creation of acoustic cylinder recordings (using the century-old techniques combined with modern digital technology to produce surprisingly accurate audio), and then at Cornell University as a founding member of the Original Cornell Syncopators, who performed for Tri-State in November, 2018. Post-graduation, Colin has found time to sit in frequently in the NYC trad scene, such as appearing at Mona's, and he performed again for us at Tri-State, backing Cynthia Sayer last November. Now Colin fronts a band of like-minded New York-based (mostly) trad jazz players. This is the US premiere for the New York Classic 7, who first appeared (led by Mike Davis) in Bern, Switzerland in October of last year. The group appears today, demonstrating multi-instrumental virtuosity - Colin (cornet, trumpet, reeds) plays drums, for example, and Andy Schumm (also trumpet, cornet, reeds) plays piano.

Mike Davis returns with his New York City based New Wonders septet,.The band vividly invokes America’s Jazz Age during the 1920s, when jazz was the soundtrack for dramatic national changes and played a central part in people's dreams, adventures and romances. The band gives exquisite attention to musical detail, and their deep passion for original recordings is evident in each performance.

Ethan Uslan returns to Tri-State as one of the hottest names on the ragtime/traditional jazz scene today. Though he studied classical piano, he harbored a secret ragtime addiction, complementing his classical studies by learning to play like Fats Waller, Jelly Roll Morton, and George Gershwin. He has recorded CDs, and performed silent film scores on DVD releases (and spins a great yarn.) We look forward to a terrific return performance!

INDOOR CONCERT and LIVE STREAM
Haddonfield United Methodist Church
29 Warwick Road
Haddonfield, NJ 08033
This Tri-State Jazz favorite, which last performed for the Society in 2018, returns to Haddonfield. "The Al Harrison Dixieland Band is a polished ensemble with enough firepower, as Duke Ellington would say, to 'scorch the moon!'" - Jim McGann, The Strutter, Tri-State Jazz Society. “A great, lively band that preserves the tradition of classic jazz without embalming it. The creativity is at full throttle, and so is the sense of fun. You can’t listen to Al and his friends and not feel better about life in general.” - Joe Barron, music reporter, Montgomery Newspapers.
