The Jailhouse Five + 2 Band!
The Jailhouse Five Plus Two returns with their authentic and enthusiastic Dixieland jazz…
If you remember back several months ago, the Jailhouse Five Plus Two helped us open the Whistle Stop with great evening of music!
The name, The Jailhouse Five Plus Two is inspired by the lawless characters of the prohibition era when Dixieland was adopted as the popular music of the time, “The Roaring Twenties.”
Bootlegging, speakeasies, bath tub gin, gangs and lawless activity was the way of life in major U.S. cities. TJFPT tries to capture the freedom exuded by the musical genre and provide a connection to a past era of our society. Happy, fast, boisterous, free, and improvisational are all descriptors of the music.
