Boilermaker Jazz Band: "Jump For Joy!"

[Albert System]

The Boilermaker Jazz Band presents a new CD of hot, swinging music: "Jump for Joy"!

The title refers to the Duke Ellington song and stage play of the same name from 1941, and encapsulates the true feeling in the music. Listeners and dancers alike will revel in the riffs!

Sing and Swing along with familiar melodies by the great composers like Irving Berlin, George Gershwin, Rogers and Hart, and of course Duke Ellington. And maybe find a "new" gem you have never heard before.

There are 19 tracks to enjoy here- almost a full 68 minutes of joyful, soulful, swinging and sentimental sounds. You'll find wonderful vocals by chanteuse Jennie Luvv at her smooth and sultry best. Clarinetist Paul Cosentino and Pianist Mark Kotishion also add their unique vocal stylings to the mix. The whole 8 piece band (featuring 2 trombones!) tears through some jazz classics, while a smaller quartet provides a lighter touch. The rhythm is solid throughout- so be ready to cut a rug!

The Boilermaker Jazz Band travels extensively throughout the year bringing our jazzy, snazzy sound to dance halls, festivals and concert venues across the country. We hope that this CD will give you a glimpse of what a real Boilermaker Jazz Band performance sounds like- no overdubbing, tracking, pitch correction or electronic instruments of any kind were used during the recording session. Please jump around responsibly.

The CD will be available soon at all of our shows including:

Hoping some of you have had a chance to pick up the disc and are enjoying it! We should have it up on iTunes shortly...

[ktron]

Hey Paul!

Any chance you'll be adding mp3 availability to CD Baby? (Not that i have anything against liner notes, just running low on space for cds... but i'm not even entirely sure I CAN buy from iTunes while running Linux!)

Track samples sound great.

[Albert System]

Yes- mp3's should be available soon. For some reason it takes a lot longer to get the downloadable stuff ready than the mail order of the actual CD.

[Albert System]

The MP3 download option is now available for Jump for Joy selections at: www.cdbaby.com/boilermaker8

[Albert System]
