They are a nine piece big band that specializes in swing, dance music, and big band jazz, at home with music for dancers and listeners, playing everything from R & B to Sinatra. The Ron Cope Scholarship was named for the late pianist and founder of the Hot Tomatoes, Ron Cope (who also led the UCD Claim Jumpers). The Denver Jazz Club is happy to continue this tradition each year with one of Denver’s most popular bands (donating their performance)!
The Claim Jumpers will open the afternoon at 1pm, followed by the Hot Tomatoes for the duration of the day. The Denver Jazz Club Youth All-Stars are off this month. It will be a wonderful day of jazz, so don’t miss it! See you on March 19th!!
