Tuba Skinny with Shaye Cohn on Piano

Here's a rare treat. The amazing cornet player Shaye Cohn proves to be equally amazing playing piano with Tuba Skinny on Royal Street in New Orleans. This is the Dallas Rag. It's on their newest CD Owl Call Blues available for download at tubaskinny.tk/ or it can be purchased at www.louisianamu... November 10, 2014.

In case no one else noticed Shaye is the DIRECTOR of this Band . She does it so casually that if you are not watching closely you might miss her cueing others at when to come in and setting the tempo. This is SOOOOOO much talent packed into one beautiful woman its amazing . I played cornet about 40 years ago and the degree of difficulty here is OUTSTANDING and she makes it look like its SSSSOOOOO easy . When I first heard her play I cried . I had tears rolling down my cheeks .I had such an emotional reaction to your playing I actually cried . I didn`t cry at my Fathers funeral . I thought I needed to tell you that . Thank You for Everything you do .

[@eytonshalom]

her music is so wonderful, agree wholeheartedly

[@anjou6497]

Yep. This band is the business. We played a Sonny and Brownie song at my father's funeral. I think you add a little jazzz to their stuff then you are in heaven. 😎

[@anjou6497]

Shaye standing up on the piano. Respect please people! 😁😎💥💥

[@АлександрСергеев-в7к]

At the age of 10 I started playing wind instruments, started on the viola and in 5 years I reached the part of 1 trumpet. I should note that I did not notice any very outstanding complexity, for a professional - this is a regular game. She doesn't take notes cleanly. If you want to listen to how to play, then listen to the Leningrad dixieland, these are professionals. 60k

[@12799MaDeuce]

Please learn how to type

[@tebzatebs3469]

So this lady puts down the trumpet and stands in front of the piano and kills it like there is no tomorrow... this is some crazy talent Marvel

[@jankrusat2150]

She is originally a classically trained pianist, who got fed up of playing classical music and turned to jazz. She still has all the skills of a trained classical pianist.

[@ianjeffery6744]

I think one of the keys actually falls apart as she begins playing...!!!

[@sbfabtfc1]

​@ianjeffery6744 I noticed that too, and then thought how impossible to keep that thing tuned in that humidity.

[@frankcorrenti5941]

Certainly is a rare treat: decent crowd, a few good dancers, band well-synchronized. Who doesn't love it?

[@shurshot2764]

Apparently the dufus walking real fast on his cell. lol

[@connieclemow4273]

So funny even with a key flying off the piano, she laughed and kept on playing!!!

[@davidvogel6359]

I thought that was what I saw.

[@jimfritz9503]

One down 87 more to go.

[@isopath1]

Nothing new. I had 10 fall off in a hall one night and had to keep the show going. It's amazing how you improvise

[@stevegrooms1142]

Shaye's response is typical for her. We've seen her have surprises and reversals in other videos. She always laughs and soldiers on. She's no prima donna.

[@geoffreywade1565]

This band is a national treasure! And I'm now completely in love with Shaye Cohn... brilliant musician

[@eddriver7815]

heyyyyyyyyyyyyy .... BACK OFF ....... I SAW HER FIRST !

[@donaldbucher472]

Forty years ago, the son of a jazz musician left New Orleans and led many major aspects of the institutionalization of jazz. Now we have a granddaughter of a jazz musician, who moved to NO and found a way to play our music in the manner in which it was conceived. What a difference that makes!

[@mrjimmienoone2130]

She has such a clean and swinging cornet phrasing! Same on piano. Admirable.

[@connieclemow4273]

The washboard player is fantastic!!! Everything about this group is fantastic!!!!

[@paulmarchand9537]

Tuba Skinny skillfully transports you to 1920s

[@SgtAwesome97]

Perfectly described, I absolutely love 1920s music, makes me miss being in band. Haven't picked up my trumpet in alomst 2 years

[@demef758]

@SgtAwesome97: I never played in a band, but I've often wondered if a young kid was forced by a parent to play something like the trumpet or clarinet, hated it, then years later a light went off in his head saying "you know, that was actually fun playing in a band!" One instrument played by itself is pretty boring, but get 8 or 9 other like-minded musicians, and suddenly you sound like Tube Skinny. In your dreams!

[@ingolfleiblle6661]

Make the1920s great again!

[@BrianCarnevaleB26]

I am ready to leave now. We would sample all of the substances that are illegal now and have a grand old time and pick up a hot dame which would lead to hours of fornication in some seedy hotel!! ;p

[@silvermediastudio]

Yep, but back then black people had their own entrances and shit. Now they just aren't anywhere to be seen and whites took their culture and music. You love it!!

[@ingolfleiblle6661]

The two dancers to the right have really show quality!

[@christopherfisher6293]

[@MrDorbel]

Tuba skinny, some of the best trad I've heard in over 50 years of listening. We all rave about the girls, but this is a great set of musicians of both sexes. They listen to each other, they watch the bandleader and they self mix! Come to Spain guys!

I've watched dozens of their vids that span several years and are amazed that the crew has been fundamentally the same with few exceptions. I fully suspect that that is Saye's doing.
