Influences
Firecracker Jazz Band's repertoire is born of the rich material of the early twentieth century "Jazz Greats" from the city of New Orleans. Popular and obscure Tin Pan Alley songs appear alongside clever original compositions. The instrumentation of the group is styled in the manner of the King Oliver Jazz Band, with stride piano, tuba and banjo providing the foundation for the contrasting voices of the cornet and trombone. -
