"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
What's Goin' On? I hope you're well. I've got a new song up, "Honky-Tonk Honeymoon." If you'll comment on it I'll enter you into a drawing for a free hat. The hat is in my pics. Thanks, KC
How you doing? Did I already ask you to listen to the drums on the song, "She's MIne" Everyone who enters a comment on that song before the end of the month will be in a drawing for a KC Roberts Hat, The Hat is Awesome, it's very thick, black with custom embroidery with my logo that's on my site on the front and it's trimmed out in this fine barbed wire looking embroidery. I've posted a picture of it in my pictures. If you've already commented, then good luck, but if you haven't then let me know what you think about the drums and the song. Thanks, KC
