Tuba Skinny & Shaye Cohn - Piano - "Blue & Lonesome" - Spotted Cat -- Tip the band at Venmo.com.

[@Marathonracer]

Shaye Cohn, in addition to a great piano, usually plays cornet with Tuba Skinny, but she also plays accordion, fiddle and I've even seen her play the spoons with Stale Bread Scottie in a jam session with the Drunken Catfish Ramblers, members of Yes Ma'am and Tuba Skinny and she does all the arranging for Tuba Skinny. Classically trained and coming from the famous jazz family of father Joe Cohn,guitar and grandfather Al Cohn,sax we're lucky she loves trad. New Orleans Jazz. She's a treasure.

[@jfhorselenberg7778]

[@oldfentiger]

[@ericfisher4602]

The most impressive jazz band I have ever heard - perfect timing and harmony

[@LuckyTrucker1]

Got to agree with you and to me the playing of the piano in the stride style by Shaye is most remarkable.

[@philiprobson8016]

I love absolutely everything that the great Tuba Skinny do, but this ranks amongst the very best. Shaye is fabulous on piano and if I could give two thumbs up I would!

[@terryofford4977]

Feet,you're but a kid yet, I'm 80 and have listened and collected this amazing N.O music for years, also played it (drums) and I do agree with the crank bv1 comment. Much of today's stufff,(outside of N.O. particularly bares little resemblance to jazz, usually played too fast, lacks feelings and emotion, and merely shows and tells the listeners that 'Here's a band that can play everything faster than any other band' Especially many so called 'Trad Bands'. In Britain Ken Colyer was a leader in bringing the New Orleans feel to jazz in the early fifties bless him.The bands shown here are simply amazing,especially given the young ages too.

[@grahamtapper3383]

Shaye has me spellbound by her piano especially in this number. The tempo is just perfect, the attack with which her graceful fingers drop onto those notes and the spell not only grips me, it does the fellow performers too. After Shaye finishes her solo section with all swaying to the beat, its almost as if they are reluctant to cut in above the sublime pianist.. Except for the washboard player and he manages to quietly carry on washing away.

[@colinbundred2412]

There a a number of videos out there featuring this amazing young lady on the piano. This is one of the best but my all time favourite is Shaye on the piano guesting with a band in Tokyo . This is the link. Do yourself a favour and check it out . kzbin.info/www/bejne/rGrPZ6Fnd518icU

The erie comparison between Shaye and Bix is, they both concentrated on the cornet and piano.

I agree with you Peter, too many bands play the fast and furious yet soulless 'TRAD', Yuk, When Colyer left this earth, sincerity vanished, although there are/were still a few great bands in UK.

Even to the untrained ear,most traditional jazz renditions,good though they often are,fail to conceal their modernity...perhaps it's the arrangement or a subtle change in the instrumentation nowadays..I don't know. But this is different. Take away the visuals and you would swear you are listening to an old Okeh record straight from a smoky 1920s speakeasy. Tuba Skinny have managed to capture this sound as close to the era as we will probably ever hear. Near perfection!

[@rperez3883]

[@terryofford4977]

Tuba Skinny are very close to the Lewis,Bunk Johnson,Jim Robinson, Kid Thomas Valentine era but it should be born in ind that recording facilities in the pre 'HI FI' era left a lot to be desired, I think Tuba Skinny are pretty smart and Maria Dixon, makes my hair stand on end, that girl can sing with her heart and soul AND blow a hot trumpet too,what more could you ask for, the rest of the band too are simply wonderful. Many thanks to Tuba Skinny.

I first heard this early jazz on 78's on a big ole console wind-up Victrola .. in my Grandma's attic - this was the late 40's, no more than 20 years after they were recorded.

[@87sailorgirl]

Been following TS for six months now and every number deepens my appreciation - love - for their music. Every damn one of them is a terrific player and together they weave such sweet - hot - sensuous music as an ensemble ! Been listening to some Louis Armstrong early Hot Five / Hot Sevens remastered CD's this week, and TS is playing the "real thing" as well as it has ever been played. (Well, no one matches Louis when he plays those high notes like ice cream .. but apart from that, Shaye is exquisite.) And Erica sings that era wonderfully. Pops Coffee's blog and comments are icing on the cake. I've purchased four CD's so far - each terrific. Shaye Cohn is a musical genius; on all the instrument except reeds ... and as arranger / composer ! They all seem to be terrific people .. it takes real listening, commitment, discipline and good humor to play and travel like this .. headed into their 10th year ! Will do my best to see them on an East Coast swing this Summer. THANK YOU for these videos .. you and the other's making them bring much joy .. around the world, it seems.
