The Grand Street Stompers featuring Tamar Korn
The Grand Street Stompers are yet another band from the Brooklyn Jazz Renaissance scene. Led by the Jazz encyclopedia: Gordon Au on trumpet, who was just here for New Year’s playing with Baby Soda. He also frequently moonlights along side Gordon Webster. Speaking of moons, it’s one of the favorite topics of singing pixie/chanteuse Tamar Korn. To hear her sing is just heartbreakingly staggering…
Anyhow, so they’re veterans of the Brooklyn to BSC underground train. We smuggle them up here, they play for us and we send them back in the middle of the night… Last Fall the Grand Street Stompers came up during Columbus Day weekend and it appeared that a lot of folks were gone…leaf peeping or something…so they got a little lost in the shuffle.
And once again this February, they’re sandwiched in between two huge dances, but don’t let that stop you from coming out to BSC three weeks in a row…you don’t want to miss any of these dances!!! (and why not? it’s cheaper than a trip to the Bahamas and will probably leave you feeling just as warm and sunny)
