'40s Big Band sound coming to town hall Oct. 23

The Hepcat Revival Swing Band is the next performer in the Town Hall Concert Series. The performance is at 7 p.m., Saturday, Oct. 23, on the third floor.

Admission is by donation. Costumes optional.
Hepcat Revival is a 7-piece swinging, jump blues band playing toe-tapping music reminiscent of a time when cars were as big as Rhode Island and America traveled by rail.

Decked out in the full regalia of the latest fashions of the 1940s, the band should be at home in Bluffton's town hall.

Hepcat Revival performs music of Louis Prima, Big Joe Turner, Cab Calloway, Louis Jordan, as well their own composition.

Based in Toledo, Hepcat Revival plays regularly at Casa Barron's and Fat Fish Blue in Perrysburg, and in clubs in Toledo, Cleveland, Chicago, Columbus, Akron and Youngstown.

The band features Greg Tye on lead vocals, Ken Zuercher on guitar, Mark Lemont on acoustic bass, Johnny Rae on drums, Vince Krolak on trumpet and flugelhorn, Dean Altstaetter on keyboards and trombone, and tenor sax men Stan George, Vernon Neeley.
