About the Band......

Ron Hull, the primary founder of this combo, has returned from Arizona and the band available once again as the Island Jazz players. The primary nucleus of the band is composed of John Pfeiffer on guitars, Ron Hull on keys, Tom Powell on trombone or guitar, and father/son duo of "Big Daddy" Ray Maas on bass and Joe Maas on drums. The band has performed at the Deja Vu (Appleton), St. James (Neenah), and a variety of out-of town engagements. Music is is a variety mix of dance and toe-tapping swing, jump blues, some latin numbers, and some ballads - most music ranging from the 1920 to 1960 and forward. The band adapts the songlist to the venue and audience as needed to insure everyone has as much fun as we do performing! The band has played the Neenah Jazz Festival, weddings, corporate events, and at local clubs. We were the backup band to Ed Franks and his Frank Sinatra Show. We also played with Ed at the Bay Mills Casino (near Sault St. Marie, Michigan). Here is a picture collection of the band, but does not include "big Daddy Maas" in this particular picture set.
