Kinda Jazzy
2023-06-23 18:00 - 21:00
KindaJazzy is a group of experienced stage and studio musicians that came together out of a desire to put a twist on the typical cover band. This four piece combo presents pop hits from the 80’s through today, but plays them in a jazz influenced, improvisational style. KindaJazzy lets listeners remember some classic tunes and maybe a few forgotten faves, but in new, interesting ways. They make great music for getting together to hang out and catch up, and to hear some loved songs that have been out of rotation for a while.

Frosty and The Silvertones
2023-06-30 18:00 - 21:00, 2023-10-07 18:00 - 21:00
Frosty & The Silver Tones is a high-energy party band that brings a show to the audience as well as a wide variety of covers and original music. Their recently released official video and CD have met with enthusiastic reviews. The band’s on stage antics and interaction with the audience is an augment to their musical library, which ranges from Lynyrd Skynyrd to John Mayer, Joan Jett, Chris Stapleton, The Georgia Satellites as well as crowd favorites from the 50s to present day Rock and Roll. They have entertained from one end of the Phoenix metro area to the other at clubs, restaurants, private parties, and corporate functions. Unfazed by the size of their audience, they can light up a small audience while maintaining engagement in larger venues.
Jeff Frost, more commonly known as “Frosty” is the founding member and front man of the band. He has been playing around the valley for many years and is famous for putting all of himself into his performances; leaving nothing on the table. On keyboards, his playing style is reminiscent of Jerry Lee and Dr John, while his vocals morph from raw to that of a crooner. His stage presence is intense to say the least –if you can catch him standing still while performing, it’s a miracle.
On guitar is Dale (Zippy) James. His virtuosity and creativity on the instrument belies his young age. He is 18 as of this writing. He wows crowds and fellow guitarists wherever he plays. He also plays keys, bass and sings.
Rich Alfano is the bassist who has solidified the groove and feel to the band’s music.
Ryan O’Hara provides the heartbeat for the group. An adept percussionist, he has been known to change the backbeat of musical standards bringing a whole new timbre to the tunes.
