Midiri Brothers Jazz Sextet Referred to as a “sixsome with talent to burn,” The Midiri Brothers Sextet will return to the fest by popular demand. Twins Joe and Paul's swinging group plays a variety of styles rooted in the small jazz groups of the 1930s and 1940s. They play unique arrangements in the tradition of the swing and Dixeland eras. At their many performances at concerts and fests all over the country, the Sextet earned many standing ovations and encore requests. Their spirited, jazzy performances are certain to bring back memories for those who remember the heyday of
Dixie and Swing, while sure to please and intrigue those new to this exciting style. During the fest, the Sextet will present a tribute to Artie Shaw on the 100th anniversary of his birth. Members: Joe Midiri, reeds; Paul Midiri, vibes, trombone, drums; Bob Leary, guitar; Jeff Phillips, piano; Ed Wise, bass; Jim Lawlor, drums
