Knick Music LabThe Knickerbocker All Stars hit the stage at the Knick Music Lab for the second dance night of Fall, an evening of blues and soul on the storied Knick dance floor. The Knickerbocker All Stars are a 9-piece ensemble that pays tribute to the great innovators of American roots music, including blues, jazz, jump blues, and soul artists. Their music features a mix of classic blues shuffles, swinging jump tunes, and deep-pocket soul grooves, delivered by a powerhouse lineup consisting of top-tier horn and rhythm sections and soulful vocalists. The band draws its name and spirit from the historic Knickerbocker Café in Westerly, Rhode Island, an iconic venue that hosted many of the world-renowned Jazz and Blues legends from the 40s to the present day.
The All Stars have recorded and performed with such popular musicians and vocalists as: Marcia Ball, Jimmie Vaughan, Sugaray Rayford, Thornetta Davis, Darcel Wilson, Curtis Salgaldo, Duke Robillard, Al Copley, Dave Maxwell, Sax Gordon, Johnny Nicholas, Willie J Laws Jr. and virtually all the alumni of the legendary Rhode Island band, Roomful of Blues. They have climbed to the top of the Living Blues Charts, placed on the Grammy Nomination List, and were nominated for Soul Blues Album of the year by the Blues Music Awards in Memphis.
The lineup includes: Willie J Laws - vocals and guitar; Alexus Lee - vocals; Arthur Migliazza - keys; Osi Brathwaite - drums; Paul Loranger - bass; Doc Chanonhouse - trumpet; Emmett Goods - trombone; Rich Lataille - saxophone; and Doug James - baritone saxophone
