About / Biography

Strolling music suitable for a great range of occasions and events.

Perfect for a garden party or village fayre.

As an acoustic band, we can provide entertainment in any setting.

We can adjust our set and style to create a great ambience for your guests.

We can play in a background capacity or put on a show to engage an audience.

Our trio line-up is usually:

  • Clarinet/megaphone vocals/washboard
  • Banjo
  • Sousaphone
  • To become a quartet, we usually add a trumpet or trombone.

We can offer a larger band for New Orleans-style funerals/celebrations - let us know your budget and requirements.

We can offer a taster 'Charleston dance' session too - get that vintage vibe!
