Rootabaga
Rootabaga plays Americana music grounded in jazz and swing from the 1920s to the present.
I had never heard of this amazing musician, NOR, that the fiddle or A BIKE TIRE PUMP could be played this way.
Rootabaga loves the swing feel that underlies all this music. We do a "backporch swingin' Americana" and love it when people dance! So nice! Come hear us play! Global Gallery on April 17 (6:30 pm), and Eldorado's Food & Spirits May 8 (6-8 pm)!

I listened to it all. I powerful story of a person’s life (with struggles), and, an illuminating commentary on how music feeds musicians. My band, Rootabaga, is one of the current “flowers” on the tree of roots/bluegrass/jazz music that Billy speaks so eloquently about. We play next at Eldorado’s Bar, Feb 20, 2026, 6-8 pm. Come see if you can hear the connection.

I first heard this musician on a Martin, Bogen and Armstrong Album in the late 1970s. I think Rootabaga Band owes its “roots” to the sound I heard in that music way back then.
New Date! We are rescheduled @ Eldorado's Food & Spirits for FEB 20, 2026 reschedule. 6-8 pm
