Session 15: Parlour Noir
Parlour Noir will be our guest this Sunday! Parlour Noir is a very unique and entertaining band that makes you want to be part of a scene you may not have even known existed. A place and time of jazz dance music, period costume, and a party sensibility.
“Combining vocals, horns, piano, banjo, drums, and upright bass, Parlour Noir swings hard through a repertoire that spans 1922-1945, including a handful of original tunes made specifically for the dance floor.”
Although they come from a variety of different musical backgrounds they share a deep love of swing music and enjoy spreading the message that started in 2017 and is going strong. Adam Darer and Paul Salter first played together at jam sessions at the “Circus Mansion” part of the Philadelphia School of Circus Arts. Paul is an accomplished swing dancer and instructor who in a previous life played guitar in a punk band. Adam took piano lessons as a kid and felt right at home playing jazz.
Everyone in the band loves what they are doing. Friends joining together -Paul invited Adam and then Marco Del Destino joined on drums, Zak Kneeland learned the banjo just so he could be part of this crew. When ever possible they include Dave Young on the bass and Timothy Hill on the coronet so that they can bring a big sound.
They are part of a lively music and dance world that captures and excites them with its long tradition of historical jazz and syncopation. There is nothing better for this bands’ spirits than to look out at a room full of dancing happy people. It makes for a lovely, wonderful evening.
2020 is a big year for Parlour Noir with people wanting to celebrate all things 20’s. Their schedule is packed with swing dances, fund raisers, cocktail parties and Jazz shows.
