Emily Asher’s Garden Party has been called “red hot” and “very exciting” by the Wall Street Journal. This seven member band of all-stars from New York City’s vibrant early jazz scene performs coast to coast in the finest jazz clubs to the busiest swing dance halls. Drawing on the repertoire of Louis Armstrong’s enchanting Hot Fives and Duke Ellington’s sophisticated melodies to the funky and soulful music of New Orleans brass bands, and Hoagy Carmichael’s masterpieces, they are, as the title of their 2013 EP asserts, a “Carnival of Joy!”

Trombonist and vocalist Emily Asher is a rising musical personality in New York City in strong demand as a bandleader and sidewoman. The Wall Street Journal also said, “In traditional jazz, the trombone comes closest to the human voice, although up to now it’s rarely been cast as a distinctly female voice… Ms. Asher plays with both grit and grace.”

Emily Asher’s Garden Party has just released “Meet Me in the Morning,” which they describe as “a fresh new, tail-shaking, joy-waking, romance-making, rule-breaking, breath-taking, Big Easy meets The Big Apple,” album length recording.
