| The Harlem Blues and Jazz Band and Gospel Quartet, which bills itself as “the world’s most authentic swing band,” will play as a Martin Luther King Day special event Friday, Jan. 25, at the University of Pittsburgh at Bradford.
The concert will take place at 7:30 p.m. in the Bromeley Family Theater in Blaisdell Hall.
Harlem Blues and Jazz stars veteran jazz and blues musicians whose roots reach to the classic period of the ’20s and ’30s. Together, since 1973, these “originals” actually “jumped” at the Woodside and “stomped” at the Savoy, with Duke Ellington, Cab Calloway, Count Basie, Lionel Hampton, Fats Waller, Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday, and other jazz greats.
