All are welcome to join us at this event in celebration of the life of Dwayne Cormier, native of Southern Louisiana, a wonderful member of our Island’s community and a good friend to Island Arts for many years. Among Dwayne’s recent gifts to Island Arts, we can count the stage lighting that he and his crew installed last season.
Mango Jam is a six-piece Burlington-based dance band playing straight-ahead Zydeco as well as New Orleans inspired funk, Reggae and Ska.
Band members are Gus Ziesing, accordions, saxophones and vocals, Mimi Ryan, alto saxophone and vocals, Peter Riley, bass and vocals, Dennis Willmott, guitar and vocals, Bill Mullins, guitar and vocals, and Michael Bradshaw on drums.
Full of energy and happy vibes, this band will have you up and dancing in no time in Dwayne’s memory!
