The Boilermaker Jazz Band is an acclaimed traditional jazz ensemble hailing from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Formed by bandleader and trombonist Paul Cosentino in 1988 while he was attending Carnegie Mellon University, the band has been swinging to the rhythms of the early 20th century ever since, capturing the sound and fervor of the era with zest. With each performance, they pay polished homage to the greats of jazz, from Basie and Ellington to Goodman and beyond.
Over the decades, the Boilermaker Jazz Band has delighted audiences with their spirited renditions of classic jazz hits, as well as their own original compositions that remain true to the genre's roots. Among their recent releases, albums like "Jive at Five" and "Slipped Disc" showcase their ability to effortlessly navigate the infectious grooves of swing. Their live album, “Live At the Mobtown Ballroom,” captures the raw, kinetic energy of their performances and underscores why they are a beloved act at dance events and concerts alike. With a discography that also includes “Swingin' The Season” for holiday charm and “Jump For Joy” for vivacious, foot-tapping tunes, the Boilermaker Jazz Band consistently offers a delightful auditory trip back in time, all while keeping the essence of vintage jazz alive and toe-tapping in the present day.
