Here’s a fun take of a familiar theme. Yes, you’ve got the Dirty Dozen Brass Band, and a host of others, but this team adds a bit of Balkan seasoning to REALLY spice things up. Sam Dechenne/tp-voc, Ezra Weller/gh, Clayton Dewalt/tb and Jim Gray/souse make up the horn section, and Grant Smith snaps with the drums, and with that you get a mix of Crescent City and gypsy on their theme song and the pretty “Vagabond Dreamin’” A mix of vaudeville and ragtimetake you to another time and place on “Slow Jump, Fast Fall” and the horns go bel canto on “Drone Song.” Even the Rhumba on “Figs or Dates” works well-these guys make everything sound delightful and create a true guilty pleasure.
