And most recently performing seven shows in four days at Art Deco including a successful debut at the Soundshell in Napier.
Their love of old time classics mixed with new jazzified contemporary is a part of a movement happening the world over, with the U.S band, Post-Modern Jukebox a great international example of the popularity of the scene.
