Satin Blue | Friday, September 3 | 7:30 pm
Catch STAN ZABEK & SATIN BLUE this Friday night. Located primarily in Southern California, Satin Blue has been playing at varoius venues for about seven years. They play jump blues, Chicago blues, jazz blues, a little funk and rhumba. This band will definitely make you want to get up and dance or just groove with a tap of the foot or snap of the fingers. You might know them as the weekend house band at the Laguna Cliffs Marriott Resort and Spa (Commodores Lounge). The band consists of harp, bass, guitar and drums all working to minimize volume while maximizing rhythm. At smaller venues they play as a trio, upright, guitar and harp.

and you make the sign.
