The Heart Starters—True to Truman: Step back in time with the post-war era music of Benny Goodman, the Mills Brothers, Louis Prima, Billie Holiday, and other Billboard hits from the Truman era. This swingin’ dynamic five-piece band revitalizes the American Songbook. The vibrant melodies of the clarinet, saxophone, jazz guitar, piano, upright bass, and drums will transport you on a unique Key West journey back into America’s Swing Era. Join us on April 12th at Truman’s Little White House for a remembrance of the night when “the moon, the stars, and all the planets” fell upon Harry S. Truman; the night he became the 33rd President of the United States.
The Key West Harry S. Truman Foundation will host a Plein Air competition earlier the same day. Guests who attend The Heart Starters – True to Truman show, will vote for the winner of this year’s Plein Air competition. Be sure to arrive early!
