Dimestore Danceband, a New York trio plus wildcard melodicists, is an ongoing group-composing and improvising conversation based around guitarist Jack Martin's succinct, affecting melodies, complimented by bassist Jude Webre and drummer Scott Jarvis. With their spirited blend of 1940s small combo strategems, post-bop stumbling struts, and Ivesian ethereal flights, the group is keen and confident of just such an endorsement on their horizon.
Always lovely, they are by turns intimate, melancholy, difficult and boisterous.
