A-Town Agency presents: Friday September 7th, 2012

Celebrate a night of Boogie Woogie, Western Swing and Hillbilly Bop and at the Historic Cafe Du Nord, built in 1907, dress your 1950s best at this once notorious speakeasy during the Prohibition era.

CARL SONNY LEYLAND TRIO (Boogie Woogie) - http://www.carlsonnyleyland.com/home.cfm

Critics have called Carl Sonny Leyland one of the best vintage boogie woogie piano players in the world, as recently he was inducted into the Boogie Woogie Hall of Fame. His styles range from early 1900's blues, ragtime and stride piano, to 30's & 40's boogie woogie and rhythm & blues, to 50's pumping rock n roll. Carl has grown a dangerously addictive piano playing repertoire. Top it off with a voice for hollerin' the blues, and you too will be downright diggin' it.

THE B-STARS (San Francisco - CD RELEASE) (Hillbilly Bop) - http://www.thebstars.com

The B-Stars are a San Francisco-based country band that stirs up a hearty stew of honky tonk and hillbilly hits for your listening and dancing pleasure.  With nods to the country and western stars of the late 1940s and 1950s, these sharp-suited boys will be singin’ and swingin’ ‘til the break of dawn. Tonight they present their 2nd full length record, "West Coast Special"

WEST COAST RAMBLERS (Western Swing & Jazz) - http://www.westcoastramblers.com/
