The Lunar Glee Club rocked Ann Arbor’s musical world in the 1980s and early ‘90s with their jazz, Afrobeat, funk, calypso and Latin fusion. Sunday July 27th, all 9 original members of the band will present a 30th Reunion Concert at Kerrytown Concert House.
Listen below as percussionist Aron Kaufman and saxophonist-flutist Paul VornHagen joined me to reflect on the band’s genesis and their triumphant win of the 1984 WEMU-Depot Town Association Ypsilanti Heritage Festival Jazz Competition. Their upcoming reunion promises to be just as triumphant!
