Be transported to a bygone era when Eton crops were the rage and batting eyes meant you had a live one on your hands. LA based Janet Klein relives lovely, naughty and obscure tunes from the 1910s, 20s and 30s including barrelhouse jazz, foxtrots, chansonettes, ragtime ditties and vaudeville from The Great Depression.

Klein is a treasure hunter and restores the lost artefacts of a swinging generation by converting the tunes from a crackling record to crystal-clear reality. With the sweetest of voices and irresistible charm, Klein and

her band are impossible to listen to without smiling.

“…Sweet and sexy like a classic showgirl, her stage presence nicely evokes the vamps of the silent era…” New Times

A trip back in time with the merry makers of whoopee.
