11/30/2024: Paxton/Spangler Band
Supporting Show Partner — Cooper & Binkley Jewelers
Media sponsor — The Marketeer
Lifelong buddy's RJ Spangler & Tbone Paxton started working together in 1980 in the popular Detroit band the Sun Messengers. They toured the East Coast, Midwest and deep south for a number of years. Back then, Tbone was awarded a Motor City Music Award for best trombonist. Since that time, he has also become quite an engaging vocalist. Spangler can be heard on more than 70 nationaly-available CDs. The two are cornerstone members of the Planet D Nonet and as such have toured 11 states, released as many CDs and garnered nine Detroit Music Awards.
Now they offer this stripped-down project – just five musicians, which has released two CDs. On any given night the Paxton/Spangler Band performs great song by Fats Waller, Hoagie Carmichael, Leonard Cohen, Hank Williams, Earl King, Danny Barker, Duke Ellington, The Stylistics, Roy Ayers, Leon Russell, Jimmy Cliff, Nat King Cole and, of course, Louis Jordan.
