“Like a dirty martini – a whole lotta swing with a splash of the Blues”
The Blue Morris 6 is Vancouver's new swing band featuring vocalist Carly Jepsen.
The band has a sound similar to the 1940s & 50s small-group swing bands, but with a bluesy twist. And Carly Jepsen adds just a touch of pop to her otherwise swingin' sound. She's young, but boy can she sing!
For soloists the band features the very talented tenor sax player Greg Lui who mixes a little John Coltrane with his Lester Young; and the very cool baritone sax player Nick Kempinski who has a fun honkin' sound.
And of course, Blue strums away at this rhythm guitar with a rock steady swing and forms the back-bone of the band's sound. He throws in the odd solo when the mood strikes, and as an avid swing dancer, he's also been known to jump off the stage mid-song to dance with some cutie in the crowd!
