Washington DC’s premier Ska-Jazz outfit, Eastern Standard Time, brings together top musicians from the Jazz and Ska scenes of the nation’s capitol. The diverse musical backgrounds of the players--from Soul and Funk to Lounge and Exotica to Bop and Cool--make for a unique spin on a traditional Jamaican sound, appealing to everyone from the ska massive to the Caribbean community to the Jazz enthusiast. Eastern Standard Time is a world-renowned act, with multiple tours of The United States, Canada, Europe and Russia to their credit. Their numerous recordings have brought them acclaim from as close as their own hometown to far flung areas of the globe such as Argentina, Indonesia, the Philippines, Russia, Slovenia and Venezuela, just to name a few. |
