Crazy
Arms is a hilarious and entertaining live music show, featuring
blistering musical wizardry and authentic vocals celebrating the origins
of popular piano playing from the birth of Boogie Woogie and Ragtime in
the late 1800s through to the birth of Rock & Roll in the '50s.
With
absurd, improvised humor, musical wizardry and incredible stories about
the piano and its players, Crazy Arms features virtuosic piano
tinkering from some of the great musicians that have ‘tickled the ivories’
throughout the ages. Acclaimed writer and musician, Damon Smith, from
popular show Sun Rising, The Songs That Made Memphis and his band
will perform music by: Jerry Lee Lewis, Ray Charles, Fats Domino, Scott
Joplin, Winnie Atwell, Dr John and more.
You’ll hear finger busting
boogie-woogie music, original, yet genuine vocals and blistering rock and
roll hits including Great Balls Of Fire, Good Golly Miss Molly, and Blueberry
Hill. This truly unique, comedy-cabaret documentary, will blow your
socks clean off their perpetually tapping feet.
Crazy Arms
