Randy Napoleon Sextet December 31, 2009

Swing in the New Year with internationally acclaimed Randy Napoleon and his band. The University of Michigan-educated jazz guitarist has toured with Freddy Cole, Benny Green, Michael Buble and the Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra. Tonight, he leads his own sextet in his arrangements of jazz standards and pop tunes and some Napoleon originals that are guaranteed to make this New Year celebration a happy one.

Napoleon, now based in New York City, brings drummer Quincy Davis to town with him. Completing the band are some of Michigan's finest: Vincent Chandler on trombone, Duncan McMillan on organ, Ben Jansson on sax and Justin Walter on trumpet.
