The End Times Spasm Band July 15, 2012

With an arsenal of vintage instruments and their Sunday best, The End Times Spasm Band revives the spirit of 1920s and '30s dance music, classic female blues singers, and New Orleans jazz. Whether entertaining crowds on street corners or high society restaurants, End Times breathes new life into the Great American Songbook and spurs even skeptical audiences onto the dance floor. The band's focus on pre-big band jazz has earned them comparisons to Squirrel Nut Zippers and early Andrew Bird (when he played with Bowl of Fire). Their influences include Louis Armstrong and his Hot Five, Billie Holiday, Le Quintet du Hot Club de France, and Ella Fitzgerald among many others.
