All aboard as Mama Train whisks you back to the Jazz Age! “Led by a vintage-voiced chanteuse and a stride-style pianist, this captivating jazz combo celebrates the spirit of the Jazz Age,” as described by Northwest Park. Inspired by legends like Billie Holiday and Django Reinhardt, Mama Train performs jazz and blues classics from the 1920s through 1950s, infusing each song with retro flair and modern verve. Close your eyes and you might imagine yourself in a smoky Harlem speakeasy or a Parisian café – the band’s soulful melodies and hot club rhythms truly transport listeners to another era. “A small act with a big vintage sound,” as one concert series described them, Mama Train delivers sultry ballads, snappy swing numbers, and playful blues with equal aplomb. Each show is a joyous journey through the golden era of jazz that audiences remember long after the final note.
