Musicians
Polly's Hot Paupers
have found vast riches in the music of Louis Armstrong, Jelly Roll
Morton, Bix Biederbecke and Eddie Condon. From American
classics to Chicago's South side to New Orleans hot jazz, The
Paupers play it
all with an infectious beat.
This band understands ensemble playing, with three horns improvising
and building on each other to create an ever-changing texture over a
solid bed of rhythm.
Polly
Edgerton lives in Roseville where she can sometimes be
heard playing a hot lick in a key.
Jim Gammon is
one exciting trumpet player from El Cerrito with an amazing range,
he’ll dazzle you.
Brandon Au of Carmichael recently graduated from Easy
Bay State U. on a feisty trombone and intriguing vocals.
Hugh O'Donnell
hails from Hayward where he pounds
out rhythm on everything he touches.
Tom Clark lives in Santa Rosa. He plays string bass when he's not off hiking in the Sierras.
Andy Clark an aspiring teen, lives in Roseville and loves to play piano, classical and jazz.
All of these Paupers are a kick to hang around with. You can dance, eat, listen, chat, who knows you may even get into a serious game of Yu-Gi-Oh with their manager, Thomas Edgerton, age 12.
