 Artist's Website

Using instruments from the Mississippi Delta string-band tradition and from New Orleans street parties, Tin Pan's acoustic roots-style music is boiled down to the heart of Americana. The band honed its craft performing over two hundred times a year, entertaining tens of thousands of people from all over the world and reaching audiences that are diverse in age, taste, background, and culture. The secret sound that emerges from a hidden city corner is captured on the soundtrack, "The Speak-Easy." Feel the spirit of dancing into the depths of night that never ends and waking up to start again with a newfound joy and reminders of days gone by. The band's singer, Jesse Selengut, says, "I'm so happy to see the music I love getting such a great response. When I see little kids dancing with their grandparents and we get all the couples smiling and moving ... that's when I know the music is working."
