They have ordinary clothing, perform in public places, sit on assorted chairs are totally unpretentious but play their instruments and sing as true professionals. Just remarkable.! 🎺🎼

No show effects, no flashlights, no cosmetics, no gesticulating entertainers, no messing showmasters - simply talent and great music. APPLAUSE AND COMPLIMENTS !!
That young woman’s voice is so freakin good. The clarinet, trombone and washboard took nice solos too. Some of the best “good time quarantine” music going.
I've never been a fan of this type of music but the talent and musical ability of all members with no electronics or other embellishments have reached out and grabbed me at 76. Wonderful.
You are calling it 100% correct in my opinion. Doesn't matter who Shaye lets play the band is always tight and enjoyable. This music is more American than either Country or Rock and Roll truth be known.

Been watching these cats for years and they just get better and better. No group plays this music like them. Shaye is multi-talented and Erika is a natural singer. It's in their blood.
Just saw Shaye and the group (sadly minus Erika) at Abita Springs and they are still getting better. They were well tuned and really blowing. Up on stage in a noisy outdoor environment Shaye made that mellow cornet sound brassy.
It is not often that one can come across this kind of beautiful music played by a group of talented musicians, everyone of them. But the washboard guy is something else! ("Passport not washboard"...ala Harpo)
I've never been fond of this music genre, but always found it 'toe tapping, hip swaying" music. The band is excellent. Shaye is a good leader with her nods, toucing her head and other signals, And Erika's voice is perfect for this. Thanks to Kassiniru for the video, well done.
I think I used to like it by others in similar ways, but when I heard them in person, and even more on CD, I was astonished to hear that they were doing something much more complex. I could hear the pattern laid down by the melodyist, with the gaps they leave, and that the backing jump in and out to fill, without tripping on the song. Done poorly by lesser musicians, it turns into jumbled up mush. But these guys don't step on each other. You lose some things in these videos, such as this one, the Tuba solo just isn't heard.
missed this beautiful young lady, GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN ERICA, wish you well with your family, was heartbroken to see you gone for those years, do not know if you are back permanently, and you may, or may not be--- however, you go a long way to make that little band what it is,, GREAT!!!! wish you all well
I think the joy of listening to them is the way they throw the tune from one to another always finding a little extra something in so doing. Nothing appears formulated which is usually the sign of much hard work and development out of the public gaze. To be sure their expertise does not just happen it is the progressive development of consummate musicians and we have the delight of being their audience. Thank you Tuba Skinny from fans across the globe.
I'm love music very much. I can play gitar, keyboard/piano and gamelan Javanese. Now teach gamelan Javanese in Malang, East Jawa, Indonesia. I want to know(berkenalan) with musician from out Indonesia, because I have some songs(ex: Dangdut Jawa and notation). I can't produce it because very difficult to find musician that understand about .ideal. Can you help me???
Ah. this is reminiscent of the beat generation of the 50's: Rejection of material trappings. Doing a professional job as dedicated musicians. Wonderful to experience. Living. Happy music.
Erica and the band brighten up these dismal covid days. I'm watching and listening to these recordings whilst stuck Indoors ( in isolated lockdown), this is the best medicine ever! Stay safe y'all!
Simply, they are great... All of them. Since I heard this music from their unique sound, I got hooked!!! Congratulations. And thanks for your big work. It’s a pleasure to hear that music played for the band and sung by Erika. She is great!!!
I have tears because u all play music from the past, the present, the heart & the soul. I have listened to ur supreme music for about a year & listen so much I never applaud very often the greatness u possess. I have albums & songs on my ipod & cannot get thru a week without listening to "TUBA Skinny" You all are great & 1 of these days, I must c u all in person to express my absolute joy in ur music. Stay together, keep playing & realize that u hold clouds of music in ur soft & musical hands! U R the BEST!
This eight-bar song is 'Mississippi River Blues', composed and recorded by Big Bill Broonzy in 1934: th-cam.com/video/Cuh95aVF920/w-d-xo.html The identical song was later recorded as 'Big Boat' by Washboard Sam. Big Bill played it in the key of G, whereas Erika prefers E flat and takes it (with the strings playing eight to the bar) slightly more briskly than Bill does.
So many grey haired people in the audience, but then I'm one too! what is wrong with the young of today. this group plays the most happy, genuine and uplifting music out there. My only regret is I can't see them live!
I love this band. I'm 74 yrs old and have been a Dixieland fan since gradeschool band. It's FABULOUS to find these practioners...only regret they weren't around when I was in my 20s!!!

I love washboards, and, since I am bund at music, I really admire washboard players 'cause their ability is extremely obscure to me... is almost like being a ten hand drummer... 8-O :-}
Another good'n! As always. My favorite band of all the Nawleans buskers. And Erika has brought the special touch back. Lovely Shaye just gettin down with her bad self and all the others in step, in tune, and in time and great fashion as well. Ya'll are the best! Just wish the two ladies would smile more often! Keep up the good work!

I wish I could understand what she was singing !

Geoff - unpretentious is what they are, normal common people, just what the world needs right now
Pure raw unadulterated talent in the business of keeping us smiling and delighting us blues folk uber happy
No show effects, no flashlights, no cosmetics, no gesticulating entertainers, no messing showmasters - simply talent and great music.
APPLAUSE AND COMPLIMENTS !!
I give credit to the whole band. They are great!🤩🤩🤩
They are the best

Wonderful.
Never liked NO jazz before now
I'm a 60 yr old modern jazz pianist and these guys are great fun bringing history to life reminding us of our roots.
So tight and loose at the same time. Perfect little orchestra and wonderful music selection.
After the washboard solo which is great - the band burst into a crescendo , I love it .
Erika Lewis is a musical TREASURE. This entire band has revived the origins of American Jazz more than almost any other group.
She has a unique voice along with an amazing delivery. She is special.
You are calling it 100% correct in my opinion. Doesn't matter who Shaye lets play the band is always tight and enjoyable. This music is more American than either Country or Rock and Roll truth be known.
@@jamesbaker7780 That is the America as it is loved around the world - genuine and original. Greetings and big applause from Europe.
I can die in peace, I've heard the most beautiful sounds
This is a sensational band. And she is the best singer in this style ever. :-)
These guys are a gem...
The great thing is they make it look so easy! That's talent!
Music that takes you to another world. A singer with such a subtle yet intense charm, voice and presence.

Aint they Marvellous
in sync. they are as 1
Cannot agree with you more about said Shaye and Erika!
Just saw Shaye and the group (sadly minus Erika) at Abita Springs and they are still getting better. They were well tuned and really blowing. Up on stage in a noisy outdoor environment Shaye made that mellow cornet sound brassy.
I just stumbled across these guys clicking around. They're pretty damn good.
Understatement?
Absolutely brilliant. Thanks
These folks are theeeeee BEST!!! I could listen to them all day and in fact, I often do. 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

Liked Dixieland before, Love it now that I know Tuba Skinny ...
Wow that's awesome thanks if they we're in England they would be a national treasure 🇬🇧🕊️🇺🇸
What a singer, am in love....again haha
Amazing.
I had to go back and watch that washboard solo a second time!
I LOVE THESE GUYS !!!!!!!! from a musician in England !!

I love you all for the great music you are playing! Shaye you are incredible, it feels like everything is in your mind!

These are Marvellous ,but there was a few good ones around in our time im 72
don't worry, you're young
@@allenfriedman2441 If you think 72 is young, I'm guessing you're not 72. I am. Being 72 feels like being 25 after a fight.
As always and excellent performance by a fast advancing little group! Excellent!!
Soy tu fans erika luce hermosa y cantas fenomenal saludos a toda la banda
Amazing as usual
I've listened to quite a lot of this band's stuff on here (YT), really good.
LOVE these people ! Music with a BEAT ! And - and - and - Erika is LOVELY to behold ! :)
FANTASTIC!!
Entertainment at its best.So much talent.Forget rap and rock.This is real music. Classics performed to perfection.
Love that girl's singing Ummmahhh!
The best in the world
Please play in London -please
Good to hear her voice properly
dam, that's some real Dixieland right there. great job. on of my fav groups. looking good Erika.
Love Erica's voice, Tuba Skinny is terrific.
On so many of these videos she cannot be adequately heard. It's nice to get her higher in the mix for a change.
Agreed. Also like the washboard guy.
Todos muy hermosos.
Los amo
Me han alegrado mucho
Tuba Skinny i love you, thank you for that brilliant music.
I like this music
