KNOXVILLE, TN—The Knoxville Museum of Art's Alive After Five series of live music performances presents The Streamliners with the Johnson Swingtet on Friday, July 18, from 5:30-9:30 pm.
Based in Knoxville, The Streamliners are a 16-piece band – 3 trumpets, 5 saxophones, 3 trombones, bass, guitar, piano, drums and vocalist Kayley Burton – that plays high-energy swing and jazz in the style of Count Basie and Duke Ellington, with a little Louis Jordan and Louis Prima mixed in for extra fun! Composed of some of the area's best professional musicians and the top of the class from The University of Tennessee's venerated jazz program, The Streamliners are a joy to behold, whether one is a swing dancer or a chair-warming listener.
Opening the show is an acoustic quartet, also from Knoxville. Inspired by the jazz music of 1930'-50's, the Johnson Swingtet draws its muse from the great jazz artists of the past, especially the great Gypsy jazz guitarist, Django Reinhardt, to create one hot swing revue.
Admission to this performance of Alive After Five is $9 for non-members, and $5 for museum members and students. Alive After Five is sponsored by Amica Insurance, Knoxville News Sentinel, Cherokee Distributing Company, East Tennessee Public Television, and WDVX 89.9FM. For more information about the Alive After Five series, please contact Michael Gill at (865) 934-2039.
