I discovered this band at Sunfest the other weekend and was blown away. They describe themselves as "Power Swing" as they incorporate 1930s Dance music, Jazz, Rockabilly, Swing and some Country. They have a standard setup of a guitar, bass, drums, singer plus a wind section of a saxophonist and trumpet player. Their sound is quite unique but if had to be compared to something, they're like the World/Inferno Friendship Society minus a few members, and sent back about 50-70 years. I picked up their album at Sunfest and have listened to it about five times in the past four days. Check 'em out.

The whole album's awesome! And it has two hot women in the band! And a good combination of genres! And they're from Miami and tour from Miami to St. Petersburg! And the lead singer dances like it's 1931! And she's almost unbearably attractive!

I think "unbearably" is a bit of a strong word. XD

Anyway, just listened to the album. Good stuff. I enjoyed it quite a bit. :D

How much did you pay for their album at the show? Because they're doing a Radioheadesque thing on their site where you choose how much to pay for a download...except they set a minimum of $7. :P

According to their MySpace, they're playing in Lake Worth on June 4. Hmmm...

They also already have the Buzz Bake Sale listed for this year. :haha Too bad they'll probably be the only decent band there. XD

So I guess they're broken up now?

Why would you guess that?

Their lead singer's out but they re-hired their original lead singer last I heard.

Oh I didn't know they had a singer before Michelle. But anyway doesn't she own most of the copyrights (logo and band name at least)? Even if they return it'll be under a different name.

Neither did I. I'm not sure if she has a copyright to the name, but she does for the logo. She's asking people to report it if they keep using it or selling merch with her logo on it.
