Ken Peplowski joins the Kansas City Jazz Orchestra for a tribute to Benny Goodman tonight. Presumably, he'll be playing clarinet.

The song also features pretty contributions from Bucky Pizzarelli on guitar and pianist Hank Jones.

Kansas City Click: If trad jazz isn't your thing, Pomeroy breaks in the new stage at Crossroads KC tonight. In their own way, they swing really hard.
Youngman Grand are an Austin-based guitar-based indie pop band and namelessnumberheadman are, well... everything. Together, they make for a great double bill at the Brick on Saturday night.
