About
Danny Tobias is an old-fashioned jazz player in the best modern way, at home in any swinging jazz context. Like his heroes Buck Clayton and Ruby Braff, he loves melody, his improvisations have a beautiful shape, and he is always recognizably himself. Danny didn’t learn his jazz from a textbook but through experience - early gigs with Ed Metz Jr., Joe and Paul Midiri, Joe Holt, and a fifteen-year musical apprenticeship with drummer Tony DiNicola and master clarinetist Kenny Davern. Danny’s quietly lyrical cornet can be heard at jazz festivals across the United States. www.DannyTobias.com
