1940s Jazz at Red Bike

Delilah Pearl and the Mantarays will return to the Red Bike at 8:30 p.m. Friday.

The band captures the golden rhythm and romance of 1940’s vocal jazz and swing standards and then blends them with soul and a touch of R&B.

Yet the band has a signature sound that comes from singer Delilah Pearl, Dodd Johnson on drums, Michael Whitmore on guitar, Tim Kehl on piano, Barry Cooper on trumpet and Toliver Goering on bass.

Influenced by Peggy Lee, Ella Fitzgerald, Nina Simone and Lady Day, Pearl emulates classic sultry ballads with her smoky voice. The Mantarays deliver the standards freshened by their years playing in a variety of styles from jazz to indie rock, bossa nova to world and experimental music.

The free cover show is open to all ages until 11 p.m., then only 21 and older.
