On May 11, 2023, Parlor Tricks will release our fourth sonographic recording INDUSTRIAL RAGTIME RADIO: Live from the Palace Theater. This performance for dancers features Melina Selverston on voice, Eddie Scher on national resonator guitar and ukulele, Jeff Bruner on bass and Fabio Reis drums. Industrial Ragtime Radio is a collection of originals and early Century popular tunes from the ragtime and jazz idiom. Four of the songs feature hot jazz ukulele. This performance is heavy on stomp, swing and swerve for the troupe of talented dancers who simply made the music happen.
