Jump Me Martha is a five-piece swing-based band that plays classics from the Swing Era, as well as their own tunes they hope will become new swing standards. Swing music was meant to be danced to, and Jump Me Martha gigs attract members of swing and ballroom dance clubs, especially those who are into high energy jive, jitterbug, West and East Coast swing and Lindyhopping.
Their lyrics are surprisingly contemporary, while the musical style and arrangements pay homage to the traditions inherent in the best music of the Swing Era.
