Much requested return of major Yorkshire New Orleans outfit led by drummer John Meehan.

Now just into their third decade together, the band regularly appear at major UK jazz clubs and festivals and have an international orbit. They've played New Zealand, America, Holland, Germany, Denmark, Finland, Majorca, Canada and the Isle Of Man,

Happy, driving New Orleans jazz at its dynamic best. Thousands of happy punters and Lake Records (10 recordings) can't be wrong.

"Well, this band has to be my favourite contemporary New Orleans style band..." ~ Kings Jazz Review
