This group of musicians came together in the fall of 1980 to test the waters of traditional jazz music in a garage turned practice hall in Pelham New Hampshire. The session was enjoyed, the music great, and the decision to proceed in that direction was unanimous.

With great spirit and dedication they arrived to delight hundreds of thousands of listeners and observers at concerts, parades, and special functions. You might have seen them in front of Fenway Park on opening day or perhaps at Faneuil Hall at the opening of Harbor Fest;  maybe at the First Night Boston procession,  or perhaps you caught them passing by in one of the many other parades they do in Boston, the surrounding communities, or South Kingston, Rhode Island.

They have performed at festivals in Essex and Moodus, Connecticut, and the Ragtime/Jasstime Festival in Alexandria Bay, New York. The group also performed on two separate trips on the American Orient Express Train, a landlubbers version of an exquisite ocean cruise.
