This Week's Freebie from The 1937 Flood

This week's freebie features a party tune from the late 1920s.

The Family Flood is back from its month-long break and getting ready for the next gig. We're so pleased that we've been invited to be part of the 4th annual Diamond Teeth Mary Blues and Arts Festival, which will be held right here in Huntington later this month.

In preparation for the show, we're putting together a set of old and new jug band tunes, along with some material perhaps not usually heard at a blues fest. For instance, here's a Frank Stokes composition from the late 1920s that was recorded blues giants from Pink Anderson to Jim Kweskin to Ry Cooder.

We like the tune so much, it'll be featured on our new CD, which will be released this fall. Here's a take from last night's Flood rehearsal. Click here to hear the tune.

Finally, Remember that the tunes from the jam sessions make up our weekly Flood podcasts. You can subscribe for free and get the music automatically delivered to your computer each Thursday. For details on that, click here.
