The Jasstown Revelators, formed by Jim and Sherry Hubbart in the
early 90's, quickly became a local and regional favorite, performing
at many jazz clubs, festivals and public and private venues. In
late 2004 Jim retired and turned the helm over to Bob Sakoi. All
the key players stayed on. However, subsequent to Jim's untimely
passing in January of 2005, the Revelators name was retired. The
Jass City Jazz Band will carry on with the same swinging
beat, those most requested fan favorites and some new numbers, all
in the tradition started more than a decade ago envisioned by Jim Hubbart.
One month later, NVDJS will feature Black Diamond Blue Five
on Sunday, May 10th, 2009 from 1-5 PM at the same location.
Spacious Dance Floor. The lodge has Food and a Full Bar.
