Sage Wisdom

"Good improvisation communicates harmonic progression melodically. Effective melodies manipulate harmonic content through the use of guide tones and preparatory gravity notes, masterfully woven in systematic tension, release, and transparent harmonic definition."

April 21, 2008 | Jitterbug Vipers

If there is any example of the vibrant Austin, Texas music scene, it's in the Jitterbug Vipers. Fronted by the granddaughter of swing violin/mandolin legend Johnny Gimble, Emily Gimble, along with Austin veteran guitarist Slim Richey, offer some of the most toe-tapping, compelling vintage hard swing we've heard in years. Their latest self-titled CD, is in regular rotation around the JazzMando lab (despite no mando content), including such great swing classics as "Blue Skies," "No Moon at All," and "When I Get Low, I Get High."

Norah Jones has nothing on this little lady with the true bloodline of swing royalty...

Pick up a copy through their MySpace website or catch them in Austin nearly every Tuesday at Lamberts Downtown BBQ.
