SUMMARY:Big Sam's Funky Nation @ Johnny D's!
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Event Name: Big Sam's Funky Nation @ Johnny D's!=0D=0AEvent Url: http://www.artsboston.org/event/detail/440705255=0D=0AEvent Date Begin: 2010-04-15=0D=0AEvent Date End: 2010-04-15=0D=0A=0D=0ABig Sam's Funky Nation is a driving force of urban funk. Ryan White, of The Oregonian, says the band is 'tight enough (and hot enough) to turn coal into a diamond!' The band is led by trombone powerhouse, Big Sam Williams, formerly the trombonist for the Dirty Dozen Brass Band, who The San Francisco Chronicle calls 'the top man on the slide trombone in the birthplace of jazz.' Combining his distinctive trombone riffs with a call-and-response MC style, Big Sam refuses to let the audience sit still. Between the band's solos and his trombone riffs, Big Sam second-lines a uniquely New Orleans style of street-dance) and gets the crowd going. Big Sam's Funky Nation is not a one man show; the members of the Funky Nation, a group of well trained and experienced musicians with impressive credentials of their own, meet the challenges of their funky band leader.=0D=0A=0D=0AStart time:7:30 PM
