What common thread can keep a professor of psychiatry in Ohio, a professor of business administration in Pennsylvania , a museum director in New Jersey, and a systems programmer in North Carolina together for almost 40 years? It's jug band music.
The Philadelphia Jug Band plays the original 'alternative music' and has been a favorite at the yearly Philadelphia Folk Festival since the mid-60's.
Hey Everyone, The Wallace Brothers Band would like to encourage everyone to check out all of the new songs we have posted on our MySpace page.

"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
