The Joint is Jumpin'- An Evening of Swing and Pop With Dan Hicks & The Hot licks, and Michelle Shocked

Friday, September 1, 2006 • 7 p.m.

Singer/songwriter Dan Hicks is truly an American original. Since the early '60s, he and his band have deftly moved through the elements of swing, jazz, folk and country music to create the appealing sound he sometimes calls "folk jazz."

"There's no one else who writes like him, who has that dry sense of humor, or has that manner on stage. He's really one of a kind."        -San Francisco Weekly

Folk-rock singer songwriter Michelle Shocked first gained national recognition in 1988 with her album Short Sharp Shocked. Her music and performances seem influenced by her Texas roots, flowing in and out of jazz, folk, R&B, gospel and countyr, Her shows are chargetd with wit, emotion and incredible musicality.
