All areas

Section I, Tulip Stage

Walk-around circus performer.

This music act was formed in 1978, under the direction of Bob Cantwell, for an engagement at The Red Blazer, the famous Manhattan restaurant/jazz club. The club and the band proved to be wildly successful, and the band kept that Saturday night gig until 2003, when The Red Blazer closed. The band has appeared in films and at performances in Atlantic City. Famous for featuring one or more jazz greats from the swing era, the current band features Sol Yaged, who remains one of the finest clarinet players in the country, having played with Benny Goodman, Harry James, and Louis Armstrong, to name a few. Steve Little (drums) comes from the Duke Ellington Band, and pianist Herb Gardner comes from the Eddie Condon Band.

Linda Ipanema is the guest vocalist. (bobcantwellband.com)
