The sensational Burning Caravan Jazz Ensemble entertains with ‘gypsy swing’ every Wednesday night beginning at 6PM at the Dilly Café. The five or more piece band under the direction of Paul Gibby with an outstanding cornet player and vocalist Chris Miller consistently energize a full house of diners with their unique brand of ‘swing’. The swing music features tunes by Cole Porter, Louis Armstrong and other swing masters and compliments the fine beers, wines and cuisine at the Dilly. The band
displays a wonderful mix of polished musicians that play for the fun and passion of fine entertainment.
The History of the Burning Caravan: It all started as an offshoot of the Cincinnati Gypsy Jazz
Society about 3 years ago. Paul Gibby and Janie Yates from Terrace Park
mastered Django Rheinhart tunes on the guitar and this resulted in the formation of a larger group including Mike Firesheets (drums), Pete Brown (bass) Chris Miller (cornet and vocals), Mike Barrett (rhythm guitar), and Dave Edmundson, (banjo and vocals).
Wednesday night at the Dilly is no ordinary experience!
