The Dustbowl Revival is at the forefront of yet another pre-rock 'n' roll revival, and don't mistake this for a fad.

Taking inspiration from Louis Armstrong's Hot Five and Hot Seven recordings, Fats Waller, and, even, Bob Dylan and the Band's The Basement Tapes, the Dustbowl Revival were named "Best Live Band" by L.A. Weekly in 2013 and are poised to win a national audience with their fourth album With a Lampshade On.

These revivalists are masters at melding diverse genres and time periods into a danceable stew. One travels from the moors to the bayou to the Blue Ridge in the space of three minutes during their dervish-like performance of "Old Joe Clark". Follow up "Feels Good" opens with a riff straight out of Velvet Underground's Loaded before sweeping horns introduce vocalist Liz Beebe's sassy and commanding vocals. "Hey Baby" features powerhouse horns and call-and-response singing straight out of a Chicago blues house party. "Standing Next to Me" shuffles along with a doo-wop inspired R&B vibe.
