"Ticklin' The Strings" by Sweet Hollywaiians
Amazing Japanese hot string band playing 1920's, 30's, 40's style hawaiian, swing, calypso, blues, italian music and originals,featuring vintage instruments.3 songs with Robert Armstrong and Tony Marcus(from Robert Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders)

Promotional Video(My Girl From The South Sea Isles)

"The Sweet Hollywaiians have probably the best feel for this 20's music of any string band working today. They manage the rare feat of sounding relaxed even when their playing is hot, are top notch musicians with tasteful arrangements and a full, rich, warm sound.Plus, they have a nice gamut of tunes, from King Nawahi to Giovanni Vicari to Bobby Leecan. See them live, if you can, for an unforgettable experience. If you can't, buy their Cds!" ~ Terry Zwigoff

Hey Rick, I don't know if you remember me or not, but my name is TJ, I'm 14, I met you this year in Port Townsend, and I took a couple of your classes. I recently bought your CD Hokum Blues and LOVE IT! I've been working your version of Eagle Ridin' Papa lately but have over 3/4 of the CD on my priority list of songs to learn. Let me know if you're ever coming to the Portland, Oregon area.
Take care! ~TJ
