Planet D Nonet
Planet D Nonet (PD9) is a streamlined version of the big bands from the 1930s, often featuring guest vocalists to expand their performance versatility. Their lineup recalls the earliest big bands during swing's evolution, blending small-group agility with a larger harmonic palette.
PD9 is a nine-member band reflecting the traditional big bands of the 1930s in a pared-down format that retains the agility of smaller ensembles while offering the harmonic richness of larger groups. Their repertoire spans from Swing Era classics through works by Duke Ellington and the visionary Sun Ra to gritty R&B. Over the past decade, Planet D Nonet has earned multiple awards, including seven Detroit Music Awards, most recently receiving the 2019 honor for Outstanding Traditional Jazz Artist/Group.
