Jazz TX's Upcoming Shows
Tue, Nov 03
Whit Smith's guitar and Elana James's fiddle argue and agree in the same breath. That argument is the sound of Hot Club of Cowtown: old hot jazz braided into Texas swing.
The Austin trio just joined the International Western Music Hall of Fame, on top of a Texas Western Swing Hall of Fame honor and fifteen albums. Their album Limelight hits CD this month after a run as a digital-only release in 2025. Hear a Django Reinhardt lick land next to a Bob Wills fiddle break, from three players who have carried this sound from the Grand Ole Opry to Fuji Rock.
As always, our kitchen and bar are open for dinner service.

Past sets have included "Time Remembered" and "Blue in Green." Mark has also played with Sir John Dankworth and Dame Cleo Laine, Pharoah Sanders, and Joe Lovano.
