The
jazz band HOT
LIPS, using the classical 6-piece
Dixieland band instruments trumpet/cornet/fluegelhorn,
clarinet/sax, trombone, banjo, C-bass and dr, is
working on the number one hit material from
Ragtime to Swing. The fun of the musicians, their
enthusiasm of playing Oldtime Jazz and the smart
arrangements create an outstanding style of
musical entertainment, that enjoys the audience
at a concert hall, a beer garden or a private party.
Beside concerts at
Munich's jazz pubs and other
venues, the band tours one or two times a year for about one week. The HOT LIPS
have played several European jazz festivals and some people say that they have
been heard and seen on radio and tv.
