Our latest video release is now up on the Jonny Hepbir Trio Youtube channel, our take on one of the true jazz classics is already getting a lot of attention from viewers.
The origin of ‘Sweet Georgia Brown’ was apparently that it was named after the daughter (1911) of Dr. George Thaddeus Brown, a longtime member of the State House of Representatives for Georgia.
She was to be named Georgia after the state, an anecdote which would be directly referenced by the song’s lyric: “Georgia claimed her – Georgia named her.”
It’s also – The Harlem Globetrotters theme tune, a classic brand of hair pomades, a female wrestler, a karaoke brand, a bunch of restaurants, a chocolate brand and slang for heroin!!
We have a busy Summer ahead with #weddings galore up and down the country, #privateparties and #celebrations of all kinds, with clients after our brand of #vintagejazz to help get the party started.
