Sheesham and Lotus and Son bring high style to Old-time music. Their playful, elaborate stage show is a delight for all. Vaudeville era outfits, footlights that cast wild shadows across the ceiling, a homemade voice amplifier plumbed from iron pipes. They revive the early 20th Century with fiddle tunes, hokum blues songs, and ragtime string music. Sheesham plays gourd banjos and fiddles, and Lotus plays an invention called the contra-bass harmoniphoneum, which is a self-contained bass-harmonica and euphonium horn which can be used while plucking a banjo (!); and "Son" brings up the low-end on Sousaphone.
