LevittDayton.org

Musical acts from across genres and around the country are being presented every weekend at the Levitt Pavilion in downtown Dayton. This Friday brings Chicago's Lowdown Brass Band to the stage, bringing their blend of jazz, reggae, hip hop, and soul that's equal parts Chicago and New Orleans. Shane Jonas, trumpeter and vocalist in the group, spoke to Excursions host Evan Miller ahead of this week's concert about what the band has been up to over the past year, and what to expect at the show.

The Lowdown Brass Band will perform at the Levitt Pavilion Dayton at 7 PM this Friday July 23rd, as part of the Levitt's 2021 Eichelberger Concert Season. For more information, visit LevittDayton.org and LowdownBrassBand.com.

Evan Miller is a musician, curator, and radio person based in Yellow Springs. With roots studying percussion at Wright State University and cutting his radio teeth at WWSU, he is currently Assistant Music Director and host of Midday Music and The Outside at 91.3 WYSO and Novaphonic.FM. Outside of radio, you can find Evan regularly playing in several bands in the area, booking/curating shows including The Outside Presents experimental series in Yellow Springs, snooping around area record stores, and spoiling his cat Nova (Novaphonic's animal mascot!).
