Baby Gramps (Rags, jazz ... throat singing) and "Hot Damn Scandal" (Tipsy American Gyspy Blues) - at the Conway Muse
Baby Gramps - Rags, jazz and blues from the 20's and 30's, with wordplay, humor and throat singing. The David Lynch cowboy of our times (Hank Williams on acid?)
Old-Time Salty Vaudevillian ~~ Live from Johnny Depp's Rogue's Gallery with tales from Australia and Italy.
"If you have never caught Baby Gramps live, this is your chance -- he's a performer with a style so distinctive you'll never forget it." He's been called "The Salvadore Dali of Folk Music".
Baby Gramps is a high energy humorously entertaining performer with an endless repertoire. He plays acoustic antique resonator National Steel guitars, and sings his own unique arrangements of rags, jazz, & blues songs from the 20's & 30's, folksongs, and many originals with wordplay, humor, and throat singing. He appeals to a wide range of audiences from folk to jamband to punk to old timey traditional and to kids of all ages. Venues he performs at vary from intimate coffeehouses and pubs, to large concert halls, theaters, and festivals across the States, Canada, Europe, and Australia. http://www.babygramps.com/
"Hot Damn scandal" - performs music that seems to be carved out of the broken heart of the American dream you feel like you have heard these songs all your life. These are your favorite boots, your lucky hat, your Saturday night shirt, Your old dog that disappeared after the rain" Scott Casey
"It's as if Django Reinhardt himself is sitting in with them, in spirit and sound" Anna Rankin with What's up Magazine
"The songs are a mix of raucous minor key rockers and arrestingly tender ballads." Robert Sarazin Blake
"Verily I say unto you [;;;hot];;; damned [;;;scandal];;; is great" Jesus Christ
"This group is just [;;;tits];;;" Ronald Reagan
Hot Damn Scandal finds its songs under park benches and in forgotten alleyways. The resulting outlaw ballads, dirty jazz, circus freakouts, shanty-rags, string band funk, lonesome heart-breakers, and whiskey bottle love songs blend together in a sweet song syrup somewhere between a ramble and a roar. Sometimes called 'Tipsy American Gypsy Blues', Hot Damn Scandal pulls no punches and and puts thunder in your molasses.
