Baltimore Western Swing Band 1

This Baltimore Western Swing Band is hot and sweet, painting America's story from the streets of New Orleans to Appalachian hollers. Unafraid to scrap together new sounds from forgotten 78's, they elegantly balance paying homage to the traditions while fashioning their own unique, playful style. The group began as a duo, a city-meets-country experiment between songstress Jess Eliot Myhre and banjo player. They hopped on bicycles, touring the country, instruments on their backs, seeking to reimagine roots music.
