Billy’s Band doing Tom Waits Blue Valentines
Billy’s Band just took part in the Rochester International Jazz Festival.
Billy’s Band are a Jazz Blues quartet out of St. Petersburg Russia and are well known to audiences all over Europe and Israel.
The do there own music and a lot of Tom Waits covers with there own interpretation and take on his work.
Billy, the lead vocalist’s voice is supposedly a lot like The voice of Tom Waits, but I agree with Seth who thinks that Louis Armstrong’s would be a better comparison.
Part of the time it sounds like Louis Armstrong doing Tom Waits…which is a little weird…
I thought this one was very beautiful.
