Put together top musicians from Washington, DC’s Jazz and Reggae scenes, give them the recipe for the original Jamaican Ska, throw a heavy dose of vintage Soul in the mix, shake well, and the result is Eastern Standard Time. Hearkening back to a time when Jazz was dance music, Eastern Standard Time initially fused hot Jazz melodies over infectious Jamaican rhythms. Over the band’s storied career, Eastern Standard Time’s sound broadened to incorporate Rocksteady, Reggae, Boogaloo, Bossa, Dub, and even Spy Jazz. At home on stages as diverse as the intimate Jazz club and the festival amphitheater, Eastern Standard Time’s dynamic live performances speak simultaneously to the feet, the soul, and the mind.
