Billy Bangs concerts sell out..BOOK EARLY!

The violin is hardly the first instrument that comes to mind when you think about jazz, but that’s never daunted Billy Bang, one of the instrument’s most adventurous exponents. Over the past 26 years Bang’s hard-edged tone, soulful sense of traditional swing and evocatively expressive style has enhanced over two dozen albums by top names in a variety of genres, from the blistering funk of Bootsy Collins and the harmolodic groove of Ronald Shannon Jackson‘s Decoding Society to the intergalactic uproar of Sun Ra.
