   About KeepSweet
KeepSweet is the brainchild of former roadhouse country singer, Erin Gannon (Motel Fresno). Erin became fascinated with badass blueswomen and their songs while reading about Lucille Bogan's "Shave 'Em Dry" in Stanley Booth's "The True Adventures of the Rolling Stones."

Much has been made of how, though blueswomen sung about being victims of male carelessness and cruelty, they nevertheless promoted liberation because of the power and anger with which they sang. But there are numerous songs in which the women are just as dangerous and wild as their male counterparts. Were these songs deliberately supressed in favor of more palatable croonings?

No matter, since Erin has assigned herself the task of bringing these gritty little gems back to life.

  • "Send Me to the 'Lectric Chair," originally performed by Bessie Smith
  • "Me and My Gin," originally performed by Bessie Smith
  • "If It Don't Fit, Don't Force It," originally performed by Barrelhouse Annie
  • "Me and My Gin," originally performed by Bessie Smith

Stay tuned for more filthy women's blues.

"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)

Promotional Video(My Girl From The South Sea Isles)

"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

Thank you, I look forward to it! And thank you for playing what might in fact be the filthiest song I've ever heard! ;-) You make me wanna lounge around lasciviously in some vintage lingerie with a glass (or 5) of whiskey! :-D
