Get ready for an electrifying tour through American music traditions as boogie-woogie and blues piano master Mark Lincoln Braun (Mr. B) joins forces with The Kerrytown Stompers, Ann Arbor’s own champions of traditional jazz. Led by drummer and washboard player Pete Siers, the band features Dave Kosmyna (cornet), Ray Heitger (clarinet), Alex Belhaj (guitar), and Chris Tabaczynski (bass saxophone), bringing authenticity and joyful energy to the stage. From Mr. B’s thunderous left hand and soulful swing to the Stompers’ driving rhythms, this collaboration promises to capture the rollicking spirit of early jazz and blues. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to hear two forces of Michigan’s jazz scene creating music that will have you smiling—and maybe even stomping—along.
