I mentioned yesterday that I had just heard Tuba Skinny on Sat. night for
the first time. I just found out that the same place is featuring Bad Penny
Pleasure Makers in a few weeks; see

The Rosendale Café is about an hour and 15 minute drive, but I might have to
do it more often if they're going to keep having groups like this.

Here is an updated description Tuba Skinny put on their Facebook page.

--------
Hailing  from New Orleans, and inspired by the early jazz and blues music of
the twenties and thirties, Tuba Skinny -- which consists of tuba, trombone,
cornet, 

tenor banjo/guitar, vocals, washboard, and sometimes clarinet  -- evokes the
rich musical history of the city. Since forming in 2009,  the band has
developed 

a following thanks to their performances on  streets and stages around the
world. 
They have released 4 albums.
-------- 


While Tuba Skinny is my new favorite from NO, there are also several other
NO 
groups that play in the same style. The clubs on Frenchmen Street, just off
the 
French Quarter, is where all these groups play and the  Lindy Hoppers dance.

Here are some of the groups. You can find most of them on YouTube.

- Meschiya Lake & The Little Big Horns

- Panorama Jazz Band

- Smokin' Time Jazz Club (great name)

- New Orleans Moonshiners

- Aurora Nealand and her Royal Roses
