Aston Neighborhood Pleasure Club

Genre: New Orleans Jazz, Hot Jazz

Rejoice in the festive spirit of New Orleans jazz as performed by the Aston Neighborhood Pleasure Club at Top of the Park this summer! Inspired by the street musicians of NOLA, this compact acoustic ensemble animates the hot jazz and early swing music traditions of yesteryear with a contemporary flavor. The group parlays their love of the past into modern settings, like performances at regional swing dance competitions, jazz clubs, and pop-up concerts in the park. Well-studied yet playful, the ensemble is known for its spirited horn lines, gritty guitar, and swinging style, equally at home on stages and front porches alike. The magic is captured on their album Live at How’s Bayou, a toe-tapping set for the ages. Fans of traditional hot club-style and NOLA jazz will clap right along with them at A2SF!
