TWO MAN GENTLEMAN BAND
Irreverent songwriters, expert instrumentalists, and consummate. showmen, The Two Man Gentlemen Band has developed a reputation as a must-see live act on the roots and retro music circuits. Since hitting the road full time in 2007, The Gents have wowed audiences at clubs, theaters, and festivals across the US and Europe, inspiring cultish dedication among their ever-expanding fan base.
A hot swing duo in the tradition of the great Slim & Slam, The Gents have obvious affection for the sounds and styles of the 20s and 30s. But, they're no period piece. The decidedly contemporary feel of their lyrics and the breakneck pace at which they attack many of their tunes creates a thoroughly modern ruckus. "Virtuosic playing" (The Herald Glasgow, UK), "keen vocal harmonies" (The New Yorker), and "hysterical" (Boulder Weekly) improvised banter combine to make a Two Man Gentlemen Band performance much more than a concert. It is a show in the truest sense of the word. And The Gents aren't stopping 'til everyone's seen it for themselves!
"The Gentlemen write smart, funny, shart-rhyming songs that put them in the company of classics like Louis Jordon and Louis Prima." -Boston Phoenix.
"They take smart songwriting to a whole new level." -Mental Floss Firmly grounded in a fast paced country swing tradition and downright enthralling in a live setting." Cleveland Scene
