Hot Club of Cowtown to play Cultural Arts Center Oct. 15
Table of Contents
Acclaimed American Western swing trio Hot Club of Cowtown will make a stop in Henrico as part of its 25th anniversary world tour.
The band will make its first Virginia stop Oct. 15 at The Cultural Arts Center at Glen Allen.
Its name comes from two sources: "Hot Club" from the hot jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt and violinist Stephane Grappelli's Quintette du Hot Club de France, and "Cowtown" from the western influence of Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys and other early Western swing combos, as well as the band's love of fiddle tunes, hoedowns, and songs of the American west.
Praised for its down-home melodies and exuberant improvisation, the Hot Club of Cowtown weaves a combination of seemingly disparate styles together to create its own effect that mixes country with jazz.
