Inspired by 50’s rock’n’roll and jump blues, the energy is high, the sound is seductive and sure to leave you wanting more.

8:00-10:30 Carl Sonny Leyland Trio

We are so excited to welcome back Carl Sonny Leyland to Sactown Swings! He has been described as the greatest living Boogie Woogie piano player on the planet, and we agree. The first time he played for us, we had our biggest night since 2019. Check his website for more info, or just take our word for it; you need to see him live.

“Whether playing solo or with his trio, or with his quintet The Boogie Woogie Boys, Leyland's playing displays an infectious spontaneity, providing plenty of surprises for the listener.  While he possesses the necessary vocabulary to pay tribute to the greats of old, he refuses to be limit himself to this & prefers to let each performance be an opportunity to say something new. His repertoire spans the Ragtime era to the 1950s & includes a number of self written material.”
