CCH is back! Inspired by Hot Club de France, the 1930s swing jazz group, Cream City Hotclub continues the upbeat, danceable style popularized by Louis Vola, Stephane Grappelli, and Django Reinhardt. Scott Hlavenka, Ben Dameron, are keeping the pulse alive on guitar along with Victor Brusubardis on the stand-up and the incomparable Aaron Van Oudenallen (who today celebrates his birthday!) on sax.

Martini Jazz Lounge, every Thursday thru May, 6:30 to close. No cover. Martinis and Cosmos, $8.

Next week: Clay Schaub Trio feat. Emily Mitchell
