The Blue Rhythm Boys bring authenticity, originality and joy to their own swinging mix of hot jazz, country blues and hokum. Their love of the great, acoustic string bands of the last century shines clear and strong. You'll hear music from the 1920's & 30's; a raucous repertoire featuring songs from Mississippi John Hurt, Blind Blake, Washington Phillips and Pink Anderson as well as the "hot club" swing of Django Reinhardt, the western swing of Bob Wills & The Texas Playboys, and the thrilling music of Slim & Slam, Hank Penny and the great Fats Waller. The Blue Rhythm Boys have played this music their entire lives, and their great delight and considerable chops will be evident pretty quick into their first set.
"Swingin’ Acoustic Guitars,southern-tinged vocals,and the best repertoire East of Bucks County all combine to float your boat up the mighty Miss-i-sip!” -Folk/Swingster Dan Hicks
