[Dixielandjazz] skiffle music

[Joe]

The best and maybe the only example of a skiffle band on tour in the USA is the Asylum Street Spankers. Google them for a variety of original tunes on youtube. They use bass, drums, saw, fiddle, mandolin, banjo, guitar, ukulele, harmonica, piano (sometimes) and clarinet (sometimes). They are an extremly talented bunch who have played together for years. They do a lot of original stuff but also play some OKOM classics. The college kids and swing dancers in the Phoenix area love this band....they sell out every time they hit town (twice a year).
