**Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola**
An amazing venue, where for 25 bucks or so, plus the cost of a (surprisingly good) drink, you can see some of America’s finest music, and enjoy the view above, right behind the band. Trust me when I say that the photo doesn’t actually do the view justice…
We went to see Elana James and the Hot Club of Cowtown, an outstanding three-piece band that specializes in what they all “hot swing”, although that doesn’t tell you much, and they don’t really fit into a category. They’re sort-of an Upbeat-Country-Jazz-Fiddle band with awesome vocal harmonies that plays Cole Porter as much as bluegrass. Catch them at Iota in Arlington, VA on Thursday, or elsewhere on their tour.
