Cheeky vaudevillian favorites The Two Man Gentlemen Band are playing in Brooklyn, NY at Jalopy Theatre tonight, September 26. A tenor guitar and string bass duo, Andy Bean and Fuller Condon are bringing their hilarious, energetic live performance of retro swing to cities across the United States throughout September and October 2014. The Gents are coming off a near two-year recording and touring hiatus in grand, Gentlemanly fashion, with a new full-length album, an extensive UK summer tour and coast-to-coast touring in the USA this Fall.

After the band's brief hiatus while songwriter Andy Bean worked as series composer for the hit new Disney series, Wander Over Yonder, they released a brand new full-length album, Enthusiastic Attempts at Hot Swing & String Band Favorites - their very first collection of tunes from the American jazz and string band songbook. Recorded live to monophonic tape using a single vintage RCA microphone, The Gents cheerfully zip through tin-pan alley tunes, banjo breakdowns, easy swingers, and mandolin rags made famous by the likes of Bob Wills, Slim & Slam, Red Nichols, and Cliff Edwards, along with a handful of delightfully revived obscurities.

Join the Gentlemen once again at one of their Fall tour stops for a night of swingin' irreverence and all-out hilarity!
