7:30 pm to 9:30 pm, Saturday April 5
Ragtime, Blues, and Songs of the ‘20s
with Rob Flax's Boom Chick Trio
Blues, Americana, and Jazz. Songs of the 20s

Equal parts hot swing, snarky songwriting, and lyrical storytelling, this energetic trio of virtuoso violin, guitar, and upright bass, with three-part harmony vocals, will transport you to a speakeasy in the back of a bar.

Rob Flax is an award-winning violinist, classically trained but known for his jazz, improvisational pyrotechnics, irresistible grooves, and a deep knowledge of American fiddle traditions. He's also a powerhouse vocalist, capable of silky crooning or visceral Chicago blues shouts, and is a consummate songwriter with lyrical depth to complement his instrumental virtuosity.

With Slava Tolstoy on guitar, known for his “International String Trio,” which fuses Gypsy Jazz with World Music, and Noah Harrington, an award-winning bassist, composer, bandleader, and educator, the Trio elevates Rob's eclectic originals with intricate instrumental interplay, tight vocal harmonies, and irreverent humor.
