After WWII, there was a happy music that swung harder than most jazz. It was salty, sexy, effervescent and sophisticated. This music predated the explosion of rock'n'roll. Even though it produced a handful of crossover stars, most notable Louis Prima, Louis Jordan and T-bone Walker, this music was largely the private province of America's urban black communities.

The hottest sound around was known as JUMP BLUES. After sixty years, it remains enormously influential. Just ask Robert Plant, Brian Setzer, Gatemouth Brown, or B.B. King. Or better yet, ask the band down at the local bar, filling the dance floor with it's version of Stormy Monday or Caladonia. JUMP BLUES is taste tested and timeless and nobody plays JUMP BLUES with more verve, authority, vigor and precision than THE SENDERS !
