Steve Lucky & the Rhumba Bums featuring Miss Carmen Getit-Jump Blues and R&B with Luscious Vocals
Steve Lucky & the Rhumba Bums are a hugely entertaining 40s-style jump blues and R&B band featuring the soulful piano of leader Steve Lucky, and the vivacious Miss Carmen Getit's vocals and acclaimed guitar.
Add in high-test musicians on saxophone, bass and drums, and the result is a superlative, rockin' band with the power to drive folks to the dance floor or get them grooving in their seats!
That's why the SF Bay Guardian describes Lucky and Miss Getit as a "perfect union of skilled and fueled merrymaking." Drawing from the likes of Big Joe Turner, Louis Jordan, Dinah Washington, T-Bone Walker and Ruth Brown, Steve Lucky & the Rhumba Bums have the talent, bravdo and sense of fun to make original roots Jazz and Blues come alive.
They're so cool that they were asked to appear in the MGM movie, Be Cool, featuring John Travolta and Uma Thurman!
"The Rhumba Bums abide by Cab Calloway's advice: 'Live what's in your soul and sing your friggin' heart out.' 4 Stars." - Frank-John Hadley, Down Beat Magazine
Steve Lucky & the Rhumba Bums featuring Miss Carmen Getit are a high-energy jump-blues/'40s & '40s R & B band, with a little boogie woogie thrown in. Their new CD will be released this spring featuring two songs from the MGM movie, Be Cool. It's no surprise that legendary blues/boogie pianist Pinetop Perkins calls Miss Getit his "favorite guitarist," and asked her to appear on his 2005 Grammy nominated CD Ladies Man.
"Carmen Getit wrings a mean, meaty moan from a Gibson." - Adam Levy, Guitar Player Magazine
"The Rhumba Bums are at the forefront of the swing revival." - Jim Moret, CNN Showbiz
