Old Time Rags, The's Bio

Drawing influence from sideshow, music hall and vaudeville this exciting duo combines music and dance to create a two person variety show.

With percussive dance, banjos and twirling brooms, they’ll throw you back into an old time era where live entertainment was king. They play washboards, Kazoos, spoons performing music from old time Appalachia, British skiffle, rhythm & blues, jug band and old show tunes.
