Dave Greer’s Classic Jazz Stompers specialize in the hot jazz of the 1920s and 1930s. One of the best traditional jazz bands in the world, this Dayton-based “territory band” has performed regularly throughout Ohio and the Midwest and points beyond for more than two decades, playing the timeless music of Jelly Roll Morton, King Oliver, Bix Beiderbecke and other jazz pioneers. Highly acclaimed guest trumpeter Duke Heitger will join the Stompers for a red-hot musical tribute to New Orleans soprano saxophone great Sidney Bechet, recreating the memorable music he recorded with trumpet/cornet legends Muggsy Spanier and Louis Armstrong.
