This music ain’t old. This music ain’t new. This music is timeless. It’s all original music, though one may believe it not, for it harkens back to early 20th century swing, ragtime, jazz and blues. It’s the South City Three: Adam Hoskins (gtr), Joey Glynn (upright bass), Ryan Koenig (washboard, harmonica, snare) joined by new cohorts Chloe Feoranzo on clarinet and TJ Muller on cornet, fronted by conductor Pokey LaFarge on guitar and vocals. LaFarge lyrics of broken hearts, hearty fun and fundamental life lessons. It’s all incredible stuff and it’s on Jack White’s label to boot. No FCC’s.
