Unit7 plays “Speakeasy Music for the 21st Century,” a saxophone-laden gumbo that seems to have made its way from Storyville in New Orleans to New York’s Savoy Ballroom via Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride.
Comprised of former members of several Pioneer Valley bands (Stash, Trailer Park, Bombastics, Who’s Kidding Who), Unit7 puts a premium on serving their entertainment with savory spices and plenty of sauce. Here’s some extra napkins- dig in!
Hey Eric and Unit 7, Check out my new CD with Zen Garage at: http://cdbaby. com/cd/zengarage Featuring Perry Yung on shakuhachi flute, Jonathan Keezing on Celtic harp, and me (Tony Silva) on percussion and chimes.
