Featuring low-slung blues and scorching jazz hits from 1851-1933. Come discover what Tents, Trains and Traveling Janes meant during this pivotal time. Wild music was created and the pioneering bandleaders were wilder still! 'Outstanding' ***** (Edinburgh49.org). ‘Vivacious stage presence’ (Herald). 'Not a household name yet – but soon will be' (BBC Sounds). ‘Musical storyteller’ (Scotsman). Early booking advised!
