Tuba Skinny, Full 2nd set @ L'Etoile de Mer, Anglet, France, July 25th, 2019

After a sweltering hot sunny day, Thursday July 25th, dark clouds started rolling in from the Bay of Biscay bringing gusty winds, fine rain and thunder to the later sets. This weather change did not stop the good times at Restaurant L'Etoile de Mer, a haven for connoisseurs of the finest sea food and great ambiance. Manager Emma Lahaye with her team had set a table fit for Kings and Queens, to welcome Tuba Skinny, the New Orleanians, who would electrify this cosy jazz club, adding extra spice with their hot music.
Sitting in a very tight side position, the 2nd set was captured in one-go with a hand-held HandyCam, HDR-XR520, in FH quality mode.
Touring France July 2019, Tuba Skinny graced this pleasant sea-side resort of Anglet, just north of Biarritz for a one-night stop-over, before heading for Andernos-les-Bains. Happy to post this footage of the complete 2nd set, unedited. Enjoy! Buying two sets of their CD recordings was just a small token of our appreciation, nothing compared to all the great work Tuba Skinny does shower us with. Shaye Cohn, leader, cornet; Craig Flory, clarinet; Barnabus Jones, trombone; Erika Lewis, drums, vocals; Max Bien Kahn, guitar; Jason Lawrence, banjo; Todd Burdick, sousaphone.

I've watched so many of these clips but this is really one of my favs. Everyone is having such a good time and the band is in top form (as always). You guys are not only playing great music but your spreading joy around the globe with these concerts. This group needs to receive the Nobel Peace Prize for global happiness! :-)

I don't know why, but when the 🎺 trumpet player smiles, she makes me smile..

Anybody else listen to this first thing in the morning?

How I wish I were there.

This is the kind of music that can not be taught. It just happens naturally.

They generate such a good feeling wherever they play, they are a real treasure to listen to..

As an 85-year-old Brit, I would like to add my appreciation for the services you at TubaSkinny are providing to us all KZbinrs...

These young people have Old Time Jazz in their blood, more than many other bands with senior-musicians. Jazz ist something one must UNDERSTAND and FEEL. Improvisation and, at the same time, perfection, thats what makes this music so fascinating. And all these young musicans...every one of them a personality and an artist. And one can see (and feel) that they enjoy playing. And that there is an extremely friendly athmosphere among them. And do not let me begin with Erica and Shayne, I could not stop raving. They are so appealing and beautiful! Thank you so much to the whole band for all what you do for your listeners.
