Up Coming Show: The Panel Alarm and 17th & Main

2011-05-03T13:53:00.000-07:00

May 13th

The Panel Alarm

"Starting as an acoustic duo of Tim Slabach and Reuben Rhodes both

playing guitars and singing while students at Virginia Tech in 2009,

The Panel Alarm quickly grew into a full band adding Jason Slabach on

keys and vocals, Chris Moore on drums, and Brian Horst on bass.

Influences that range from classic rock to country and even to church

hymns lead to a wide variety of song styles. While the style of their

music has a wide range, the one constant is a focus on good melodies

and good songwriting. With a name that means a call to action,

The Panel Alarm hope that the songs they write and share inspire people to move."

17th & Main

"Smooth acoustic instrumentation and tight vocal harmonies shape the band's sound, while the keys bring it all together. Lyrically, their songs vary from subjects of uncertainty and hope to good old-fashioned love. Their influences are as diverse as their backgrounds, ranging from Nickel Creek to Dave Barnes to Eric Clapton."

“Bob McChesney is a virtuso and he has the gift to bring us the joy of music at the highest level.”
— Lalo Schifrin, composer

“Bob McChesney is a technical monster on the trombone, someone who is so advanced that others merely quake in his path”
— Steven A Loewy, All Music Guide to Jazz

“…probably the best jazz trombone playing I’ve heard to date.”
— Eddie Daniels, solo artist

“Bob’s immense talent coupled with his experience in the music business makes his clinic a ‘must see’”. — Paul Weikle, UNF

“…a master of the trombone.” — Mark Isham, film composer/solo artist

McChesney was a featured performer at the 2005 International Association of Jazz Educators Conference and recently performed the famous cornet piece “The Carnival of Venice” on slide trombone with the Idaho Falls Symphony. He is a popular guest artist at Festivals, Concert Series and Universities.

McChesney has authored a successful trombone method, “Doodle Studies and Etudes” (Chesapeake Music). His book and CD recording is an in-depth analysis of doodle tonguing for trombone and has been widely praised as the definitive method on the technique.
An effective educator as well as virtuoso performer, Bob brings his wealth of talent and experience to master classes and workshops across the globe. Neil Slater, director of the famed North Texas State One O’Clock Band, has said “. . . an outstanding performer, clinician and jazz educator . . . ”
