Dukes of Dixieland featured in first Woodbine Productions benefit
BROOKINGS, S.D. — Fusing 21st century strands of pop, gospel and country with authentic New Orleans sounds, the Dukes of Dixieland will bring their unique and distinct version of jazz to South Dakota State University’s Performing Art Center May 21 at 7 p.m.
A New Orleans tradition now in their fourth decade, the Dukes of Dixieland have shared the stage with other musical greats such as Ella Fitzgerald and Pete Fountain. They’ve also appeared as special guests with several major symphony orchestras.
The Louisiana-based jazz group has reached international fame, performing from Japan to Spain to Turkey as well as all over the U.S. They have been nominated for a Grammy and carry on the tradition of New Orleans-inspired, foot-stomping tunes. Recent albums have received rave reviews for the group’s authenticity and tight playing.
Woodbine Productions is a new performing arts series affiliated with the SDSU Foundation. Due to generous anonymous support, the series will bring two, world-class musical productions to Brookings each year.
All ticket sales from the series will go directly to support music scholarships at South Dakota State University.
Tickets are available through the Information Exchange in The Union on the SDSU campus. General admission is $20; tickets are available to students for $5.
For ticket information, contact (605) 688-6127.
