The Hot Club to perform at Concerts in the Woods

COYLE — The Hot Club of Port Townsend will perform at Concerts in the Woods at 3 p.m. Saturday.

The concert will be at the Laurel B. Johnson Community Center, 923 Hazel Point Road, Coyle.

The Hot Club of Port Townsend performs Django Reinhardt-style hot club jazz, harmony vocals, in both English and French, French waltzes and a dash of Brazilian choro.

The ensemble is composed of experienced musicians who have been a part of the Pacific Northwest and West Coast music scenes for decades.

Jessica Logan, the group’s guitarist, is a multi-instrumentalist, singer and songwriter who formerly played in Zazou, which primarily performed original django-style swing tunes.

Bobbi Nikles, a Port Townsend-based fiddler, has performed many styles, including old time, Irish and swing jazz.

Nikles founded and directed Fiddlekids, a camp for young fiddlers in Berkeley, Calif.

Tracy Grisman, the Hot Club’s bassist, also is a multi-instrumentalist. She often performs with her husband, David Grisman.
