Alex Pangman's Hot Three! EP Release @ The Supermarket, Wednesday


Toronto jazz swinger Alex Pangman's Hot Three! EP for Justin Time boldly bares the advisory: "Recorded Straight to 78 rpm in New Orleans"  Yep, that's right – direct to 78rm acetate disc. The resulting CD includes both beautiful *and* bawdy songs, the likes of which one might expect to have been recorded in a one-room studio, around a single microphone back in the 20s. It's the answer to a question which Pangman has long pondered "why do old records sound the way they do?" And so the  recording process for her latest project was a journey into the mindset of the earliest recorded jazz musicians. The songs on which Alex chose to focus for the Hot Three! EP – Sweethearts on Parade, It's the Talk of the Town, Sweet Lotus Blossom, Blues My Naughty Sweetie Gives to Me, Little White Lies and Clarence Williams' 1924 classic popularized by Virginia Liston, You've Got the Right Key but the Wrong Keyhole – suitably reflect that lively period in the Crescent City's storied history.

Bringing into the present, Alex will be joined at The Supermarket tonight (November 15) by Drew Jurecka on violin, Nathan Hiltz on guitar, and John MacMurchy on bass saxophone (in the roles of Matt Rhody, Nahum Z, and Tom Saunders). In the second set, they will be joined by more of Alex's own Alleycats, Glenn Anderson, Peter Hill and Jack Zarowski.

DJ Colonel Tom Parker will spin period 78 rpm jazz records before and during intermission! Doors open at The Supermarket (268 Augusta) at 7 pm. The show runs from 8 pm to 10:30 pm. Tickets are $15 available at alexpangman.com or at the venue.
