The Uptown Rhythm Makers Dixieland Band from San Diego, CA

"Uptown Rhythm Makers have been infusing New Orleans style traditional jazz and swing into the San Diego music scene since 2003. Their repertoire of classic jazz and swing favorites, especially the hot jazz dance music of the 1920s and 1930s have made the band an absolute favorite of San Diego's swing dance community." - Gator By the Bay, 2019 BRUCE VERMAZEN cornet and vocals BOB ANDERSEN trombone and leader JIM FIEDLER clarinet ARMAND FRIGON banjo CLAUDIA GOMEZ drums JEREMY EIKAM string bass We play at the outdoor gastropub/music venue Panama 66 on the 2nd and 4th THURSDAYS of the month.
