PORT TOWNSEND — Gypsy jazz and swing will fill up the Friends Meeting House, 1841 Sheridan St., as Stillway & Bonham arrive Saturday night.
The local band the Blue Crows will open the show, to start at 7 p.m. after doors open at 6:30 p.m.
Admission is a suggested $15 donation to catch the two acts, and concert-goers are asked to RSVP by phoning 360-385-0526.
“Stillway and Bonham cut through the clatter of pop music with a package that’s part Django Reinhardt and part Rev. Gary Davis, tied up with a ragtime bow,” Don Campbell of The Oregonian has said of the pair.
“Jamie Stillway not only comps big, fat, swinging and expensive jazz chords, but picks with a ferocity that would make Django proud,” he adds, while “Ben Bonham devilishly evokes front-porch picking sessions and Hawaiian luaus.”
