The ultimate swing masters return: Bernard Anderson & the Old School Band. It’s an East Coast meets West Coast approach to swing and R&B, with some blues and a bit of zydeco for variety, as this quartet hits well-known and rare gems of those styles for the dance crowd. Led by Doctor B – Bernard Anderson – on saxophone (tenor and baritone) and lead vocals, the group includes drummer Brian Berson (of Blues Alley and Red Archibald’s Internationals), guitarist Dennis Geaney, and bassist Henry Oden. Songs come from Motown, Chicago, and Memphis and slower West Coast swing, from Louis Jordan, James Brown, and more. Anderson has issued a solo CD, “Yes, There Is a Doctor in the House,” and has been featured on recordings by such artists as Taj Mahal and Queen Ida, as well as performing with dozens of musicians including Charles Brown, John Handy, Joe Henderson, and Mary Wells. The Bay Area Blues Society named Anderson Blues Saxophonist of the Year in 2005.
