Deadly Score presents The Dave Ricketts Trio + Tin Cup Serenade (($10 before/$15 day of show))
SEE EVENT DETAILSThe Dave Ricketts Trio
Guitarist/Singer-songwriter/Ukulele/Cornet
Band Leader for Gaucho (gypsy/swing band)
You can hear Gaucho on the upcoming Keanu Reeves/Winona Ryder movie, Destination Wedding!
Dave has fallen in love with American Music (and its composers) up to around 1960. His musical compositions, song-writing, and performance style draw on his deep knowledge of and inspiration from that era. For all his devotion to the music of the past, Dave still feels that his sound is part of the present day the same as many of the issues that inspired musicians of the past to write are still alive today. Social injustice and lost love, found love, and the need to raise high the roof beam.
Away from Gaucho, you will mainly hear Dave as a soloist or accompanied by an upright bass and at times also a pianist. These musicians are a deep (important or integral?) part of Dave’s Life while pursuing music between San Francisco, NYC, Nashville and Portland, Oregon.
Tin Cup Serenade
Pick yourself up, dust yourself off, it's a new evening, and Oakland's own Tin Cup Serenade will be your musical concierge as you travel into and beyond the reaches of their timelessly original jazz compositions. Swing with a healthy dose of the blues, HonkyTonk with a sparkle of Romantica...it's Chet Baker slumming with Bob Wills...it's Billy Holiday chumming with Hank Williams.
Press for Tragic Songs Of Hope:
Tragic Songs of Hope lives up to its name, with ten songs brimming over with exuberant melancholy, bringing to mind an eternal noir rendezvous, where the band never stops, and the crowd is too drunk on the music to care. The songs evoke a Tin Pan Alley melange of New Orleans Jazz, Calypso, Swing, Mariachi, ragtime, early Country, and traditional Cuban Music. The band will be touring widely to support the album’s release.
“Every song on the album has a bit of pathos and a bit of sunshine,” singer and bandleader Rolf Wilkinson explains. “There’s no sadness without happiness, no comedy without tragedy. I like the complexity that results from conflicting emotions, and that's often a source for my music."
Deadly Score
Setters of fire and throwers of shows.
