The musical approach of the Midnight Rose Jazz Band can best be 
described as eclectic, mainstream Dixieland, with a taste of swing and 
novelty tunes thrown in.  Formed in 1990, Midnight Rose has fast become 
recognized as a fun, crowd pleasing, regular on the jazz festival scene. 
  Prominent on the front line are two sisters, Nancy Kreis on clarinet 
and  Dannie Balser Singinghawk on trumpet.  Five brave, talented men 
make up the remainder of the band.


Spacious Dance Floor.  The lodge has Food and a Full Bar.

One month later, NVDJS will feature the El Dorado Syncopators on Sunday,
July 10, 2005 from 1-5 PM at the same location.
