Happy New Year! Break out the black-eye peas and cabbage.

This song, released on New Year’s Day, 2017, was made to celebrate the moment a few days earlier when we reached the break-even point and your personal jazz band was suddenly able to continue creating and releasing new music for you without losing money.

Recorded in a hastily arranged session on Wednesday, December 28, it was our quickest turnaround to date. Once it became suddenly clear that we would indeed achieve financial solvency in 2016, we knew we had to get something together by January 1st. And for this one we've pulled out all the stops.

"Ba Moin En Ti Bo Doudou" ("Give Me A Little Kiss Sweetie") is another of our Creole beguines that we play at damn near every gig. This party includes a run-down of the melody, a quick version of "Happy Birthday" (which has the same chord changes - play it at your next birthday bash!), a trombone solo, an alternate version of the melody played by two clarinets, and a percussion throwdown before the clarinets recap the head (up a whole step) and take it out.

(BTW - this particular version of our recording was edited for release on The Next One. Earlier versions included an ad lib section that didn’t quite work and did not include the above mentioned percussion throwdown. We feel that this is the swingin’est of the three and think you’ll dig it!)

Y'all are beautiful and we love you! Again, with gratitude, happy new year. Let's be sure to get together in 2017.
