It is a real treat to see these extremely talented musicians playing off each other, swapping licks, and just having fun. This is music for acoustic guitar music lovers. Influences of soulful blues and raucous swing, will take you on a trip through time, from the roaring 20’s and 30’s, from Mississippi John Hurt, Blind Blake, the “hot club” swing of Django Reinhardt, the western swing of Bob Wills & The Texas Playboys to the music of the great Fats Waller. The Blue Rhythm Boys play the music they love, and their great delight and considerable chops will be evident pretty quick into their first set. In their musical lives, these guys have played in just about every state in the union and many countries around the world, but they have all claimed that their favorite gigs are when they can play together.

I love to do fun things with my children and hope that sharing our adventures provides other families with inspiration and resources that lead to quality time together and a love for learning!” This non profit 501c3 organization was started so parents would have a family friendly place to come to, feel supported and leave with information that is useful. This site is kept advertisement and influence free in order to keep the page from clutter and bias opinion. Your support, feedback, likes and comments are essential; this site was designed to connect the community.

Thanks for the tips. Our son is an ok sleeper since the training but I’m a bit afraid of the change. I guess I’ll try to play it delicate in few days.
