Evoking the street partying spirit of New Orleans from the 1920s & 30s, The California Feetwarmers specialise in ragtime, Dixieland blues and traditional jazz.
Titles like Jazz Me Blues, A Banjo Vamp and Tiger Rag give you an idea of what to expect.
It's unashamedly nostalgic, revelling in music of a time gone by which still has many fans today. Among them is Keb' Mo' who booked the eight-piece band to guest on a track on his latest album, BluesAmericana.
This foot stomping, Lawdy Mama social music is designed to help festivities go with a swing. On record, and a long way from Louisiana, it sounds a bit flat.
