Stan Ayeroff - Leader, Composer, Arranger, Guitars While studying composition at the California Institute of the Arts, Stan fell in love with swing music, especially Django Reinhardt and the Hot Club of France. He went on to write books on Django Reinhardt, Charlie Christian and Benny Goodman. He has performed with Texas R&B singer Delbert McClinton and was co-musical director (with Danny Elfman) of the original 'Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo'. He served as Orchestral Supervisor for Rod Stewart, Page and Plant, The Who and Heart, conducting a chamber orchestra for Heart's concert video 'The Road Home' on Capitol Records. Stan has been the musical director for a series of projects featuring Roger Daltry of The Who, and has served as arranger for songwriter David Baerwald (Sheryl Crow, Moulin Rouge). On the recommendation of Ry Cooder, Stan was enlisted by drummer Jim Keltner to create a 'Djangoesque' jingle for U.S. Healthcare. Stan assembled his musical dream team of violinist Sid Page, woodwind player Dan Higgins, bassist Dave Stone and percussionist Brad Dutz and the group 'Snapdaddys' was born. On this precursor to Dream Street, Leslie joined in on bassoon for one song. Their instrumental CD 'Snapdaddys' is available at the Dream Store. For many years Stan has serenaded the stars on and off camera, once upon a time inspiring Sean Connery and Sophia Loren to dance together to his solo guitar playing. What's Next? Dream Street!
