Planet D Nonet, "I'm Checking Out", LIVE@ Summer Solstice Jazz Festival, 2017

Planet D Nonet: A down & dirty little swing band from Detroit, was founded by drummer RJ Spangler and trumpeter James O’Donnell. The PD9 is about swing, blues, space-age jazz and classic American songs all served with plenty of good humor with an eye toward turning people onto this kind of music. http://rjspangler.com/pd9.php The Summer Solstice Jazz Festival is presented by the City of East Lansing, Wharton Center for Performing Arts and the MSU College of Music, with artistic direction by Rodney Whitaker.
