The FrostKings are equally at home playing swinging shuffles, slow blues or full-tilt boogies. Their repertoire ranges from the West Coast swing stylings of Louis Jordan and T-Bone Walker, to the classic blues of Luther Johnson, B.B. King, Eddie 'Clean Head' Vinson and Muddy Waters, to the R&B of Wilson Pickett and Herbie Hancock. It may be chilly outside, but somehow the icy cold tones of the FrostKings warm up any afternoon.


 


The show is free and open to Westfield Memorial Library and MURAL cardholders. MURAL cardholders belong to libraries that are part of the Middlesex Union Reciprocal Agreement Libraries.
