FALL DANCE!

CBMA is pleased to announce the first event of the 2008-09 season with a fall dance featuring blues & soul saxophone player Terry Hanck.

"A fabulous entertainer, my favorite saxophone player."
--Elvin Bishop



Well known for his hard blowing sax, incredible range and gusty vocals, Terry Hanck toured with Elvin Bishop for more than a decade before setting out in the late 80’s to tour under his own name. Terry plays a signature mix of New Orleans Gumbo, West Coast Jump and East Bay Funk with a topnotch band includes Johnny Cat on guitar, Michael “Fly” Brooks on bass and Butch Cousins on drums.

"Terry Hanck is the funkiest, sexiest, most prolific and talented singer/songwriter/musician on the earth. He has to be Jr. Walker's bastard child."
--Tracy Nelson
