Dr. Daylight’s Jazz Company entertains in Polson

Dr. Daylight’s Jazz Company delivers nostalgic Prohibition-era jazz to the Polson High School Auditorium at 7 p.m. Feb. 17.

Since forming in 2018, the Louisiana-based ensemble has traversed traditional jazz standards and reconstructed top 40 arrangements with a twist of jazz.

Their self-titled debut album, released in 2019, combines niche jazz with pop songs ranging from “Hotel California” to the American Songbook standard, “On the Sunny Side of the Street.” The song list even includes original compositions by bandleader Jake Spinella: “Second Line Snort” and” Boudoir Blues.”

Their latest release, Potluck, showcases an evolved sound; rich with brass, rhythm, and special arrangements crafted for the guest vocalists.

Tickets to the Mission Valley Live! performance are $15 for adults and free for 18 and under and available at the door or online at missionvalleylive.com.
