What Are People Saying about the Blue Rhythm Band?

 

In this age of momentary acknowledgement and empty coolness it is refreshing to find Crytzer’s Blue Rhythm Band performing outside the twittered masses. 

Particularly of note are Crytzer’s originals: “Dickey’s Blues,”  “ Rachin’ in Rhythm,” and the title track “Chasin the Blues” which blend his love of the big band era and his ear for creating a tapestry that was meant for listening and dancing and lasting. 

Bravo to the performers.

Bravo to the task.

"Glenn's music is authentic vintage swing. His bands are two of only a select handful of groups playing today that excite me as both a musician and a dancer."

-Jonathan Stout

The Blue Rhythm Band sets itself apart by delivering the true classic sound of the big bands with the highest quality musicians and arrangements.  Glenn doesn't make any exceptions with quality when it comes to maintaining the integrity of the big band era while adding his own musical talent into the mix.

"The band truly represents the combination of the past meeting the present, a vintage feel with a solid rhythm that you can really groove to, for any dancer or musician. This big band swings hard!"


-Giselle Anguizola

Crytzer's Blue Rhythm Band is the most authentic and original sounding big band around today. The rhythm section swings so hard and the horns are so tight you'd think you had just walked into a Ballroom in the 1930s.
