"Ticklin' The Strings" by Sweet Hollywaiians
Amazing Japanese hot string band playing 1920's, 30's, 40's style hawaiian, swing, calypso, blues, italian music and originals,featuring vintage instruments.3 songs with Robert Armstrong and Tony Marcus(from Robert Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders)
"The Sweet Hollywaiians have probably the best feel for this 20's music of any string band working today. They manage the rare feat of sounding relaxed even when their playing is hot, are top notch musicians with tasteful arrangements and a full, rich, warm sound.Plus, they have a nice gamut of tunes, from King Nawahi to Giovanni Vicari to Bobby Leecan. See them live, if you can, for an unforgettable experience. If you can't, buy their Cds!" ~ Terry Zwigoff
Hey Guys, I posted two videos from your Blueseed gig on my myspace page, if you want 'em I think you just have to go there and click "post to my profile" . Sorry that the quality isn't great. It was a great gig and a great night , so glad that I made it.
Hello Brooklyn!...my trio is playing in Brooklyn this Sunday night @ The Jalopy Theater (315 Columbia St, Red Hook, Brooklyn). Show starts at 8, we play at 9:30. Come by if you can.
I AM that boatman, the faceless weaver that wove his course down those rivers and tides on Christmas Eve to find nothing (to my heart's delight) but exquisite aural journeys via the gentle music of Frankenpine. Thanks for the Add, folks, and Please, keep um comin'...
