New Wolverine Jazz Orchestra - Sydney to Chicago [CD]

Inspired and influenced by Jazz legend Bix Beiderbecke, this Sydney, Australia-based group has built a loyal U.S. following in recent years with well-received appearances at the Davenport, Iowa (birthplace of Bix) festival and other Midwestern gatherings. They tackle a number of songs associated with Bix, either because he recorded them or because he certainly would have played them given his extensive dance band career in the 1920's.
