| Dale Head and the MindWinder Orchestra at Catalina Jazz Club on August 8th Dale Head and the MindWinder Orchestra August 8th - 8:30pm - One Night Only! Catalina Jazz Club 6725 West Sunset Blvd. Hollywood California 90028 The MindWinder Orchestra is an 18-piece big band created by visionary musician Dale Head. It features a full rhythm section (drums, bass, guitar, piano and organ) as well as a 13-piece horn section. The full show also includes impressive light and video effects that are choreographed to the performance. A culmination of Dale's 20-year vision for a big band that would capture the power of a rock show with the force of big band orchestration, the sound is most aptly described as Pink Floyd meets Postmodern Jukebox. Currently, the MindWinder Orchestra is performing songs from Dale Head's latest national release, "Swing on the Rocks, " as well as tunes from his first national release, "Swing Straight Up, " and classics from the Great American Songbook such as Joe Williams, Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis, Jr. and Michael Bublé. Dale Head has melded the power of a big band with popular classic rock tunes to transport audiophiles, jazz fans and rock lovers to new musical heights. The MindWinder Orchestra travels with the full rhythm section, and smaller versions of the MindWinder Orchestra are available for smaller venues. "Dale Head is a cool cat. He can swing. He can scat. He can trumpet. And he can rock. Check out this cool rendition of Rush's "New World Man" with the Paul Schaeffer and the 18-piece MindWinder Orchestra, as well as other big band renditions of classic rock songs.
