Jim Stranahan Little Big Band at Dazzle Jazz | May 23

The Jim Stranahan Little Big Band – featuring Eric Gunnison and Justin Adams – will be performing at Dazzle Jazz May 23. 

Stranahan, a professional saxophone player and band leader in the Denver area for the past 33 years, has performed with notable local and national jazz musicians including Colin Stranahan, Eric Gunnison, Paul Romaine, Hugh Ragin, Jeff Jenkins and Bijoux Barbosa.

Stranahan’s newest group, The Jim Stanahan Little Big Band, is an 11-piece group featuring many of Denver’s top jazz players in a large group setting.

The driving force behind this ensemble is Stranahan’s original compositions and arrangements, which run the gambit of musical styles and rhythmic grooves related to jazz. Powerful horn-filled be-bop inspired lines alternate with outstanding soloists as well as a driving rhythm section.

A great musical variety is presented in each of this band’s performances!
