Their sets cover everything from Fats Waller’s Harlem Jive to swing classics by Duke Ellington, Benny Moten, Count Basie, Fletcher Henderson, and the jumpin’ jive of Louis Jordan. The band features James O'Donnell on trumpet and vocals, trombonist John “Tbone” Paxton, and often guest artist Camille Price. With eleven Motor City Music Awards under their belt and performances in eleven states including New Orleans, their music fills dance floors and jazz fans alike.
