The Devil Mountain Jazz Band continues to develop their multi-style
approach toward preserving the popular music of the late 180's through
the early 30's, and the West Coast revival of the 1940's. They're best
known for the two trumpet sounds of the Joe "King" Oliver and Lu Watters
bands and the orchestrated "hot dance" music of the late twenties.
You'll also hear DMJB perform ragtime, blues, Dixieland standards,
gospel and novelty tunes and an occasional duck call by Pete Main!
Spacious Dance Floor. The lodge has Food and a Full Bar.
One month later, NVDJS will feature Cell Block Seven Jazz Band on
Sunday, July 9th, 2006 from 1-5 PM at the same location.
