Erika went to New Orleans, learnt street style. The fantastic result , post floods, is history. They are now all legends,continuing jazz history.

From the singer and the band, to the dancers and to those watching and enjoying, basically the whole street....Excellent, all of it.

Since the 70s after listening to a local Blues/jazz band I longed to find another band like this, Tuba Skinny fit the bill delightful.

This band keeps me smiling en wonder why they aren't more famous

This is so close to what I remember seeing of Tuba Skinny on Royal Street that I actually looked for us in the background!

(from Bolivia) Damn - what great enjoyable music

That whole scene looked like more fun than I’ve had in ten years.

Well, that was some sweet blues. The singer Erika Lewis was perfect! I've heard many young people sing old blues, and just don't get the right sound. And I have always suspected that they really don't like the style, or they hadn't heard any of the original records, or the producer screws it up. Amy Winehouse could have done a good job on this, but I can't think of any other famous Generation Y or Z singers that could. Modern singers always try to put too many flourishes in it. People like Erika Lewis just aren't heard much in places that aren't New Orleans. She is a rare gem and thank god for her!

Found by accident .. What a treat ! Thanks to all.
