REPORT THIS LISTING 0 - Scott Gwinnell Jazz Orchestra
The Scott Gwinnell Jazz Orchestra is a 16-piece modern-jazz big band, that performs every Wednesday night at Cliff Bells in downtown Detroit. The group was founded and is led by Scott Gwinnell, jazz pianist, composer, and arranger based out of Detroit. The Jazz Orchestra has been together for 7 years with, a 2 year hiatus, playing weekly at at four different clubs throughout its tenure. The now defunct, Music Menu Cafe was the fledgling band's first home. They were the only Jazz band in an eclectic mix of bands and music styles. They should be given credit for taking on such a profitless venture, supporting a musician and a band with not much of a "name". Like many bands in nightclubs, the gig had run its course, and it was time to move on. We, shortly thereafter, moved to the Berkley Front, in suburban Detroit. We played there for a few chaotic months but never really took off. The Berkley Front was more of a rock and roll bar and had little patience or understanding for Jazz. After a few months off, the band moved into the place that garnered the most attention for the Jazz Orchestra: The Cadieux Cafe. The Cadieux Cafe is a corner-bar on the east side of Detroit that is famous for its Belgian cuisine and libations, as well as "feather-bowling". Go to the Cadieux Cafe for an explanation of feather-bowling; I don't know if an accurate description can be given in a sentence or two. The group prospered in the small room, making a lot of contacts and bringing in a fair amount of musicians and notable Detroit personalities. Even though there were disadvantages to playing that room, the Jazz Orchestra had finally found a home.
