In their fifth recording one can hear the band continue to mature and broaden their focus a bit, while staying right in their wheelhouse: swinging, bluesy 'party' jazz! Their original material (such as Night is For Lovers) stands solidly besides jazz classics (Exactly Like You) and forgotten gems (The World Is Waiting For the Sunrise). Sultry songs (Sway) bump into low down blues (St James Infirmary Blues) and Dixieland stomps (Milenberg Joys). This, and plenty of dance and party music to keep you swinging. This is definitely a recording to hold on to for years to come.

Bryan Redmond (vocals, saxophones), Chad Boydston (trumpet), Ryan Wurtz (guitar), Ben Ruth (upright bass, sousaphone), Lisa McKenzie (drums)
