News: TICKLERS CONFIRMED FOR CHELSEA:arts festival, June 20th

24.04.09 - Ticklers have a great time in Spain for the Dixieland Festival Tarragona, and are preparing for a very busy summer.

01.02.09 - DeWolfe Music UK commission a second children's album for use in their production music library.

The development of jazz has to be one of the most organic and fascinating stories in music. Dom James and his would like to provide the first chapter for you with an atomic Dixieland explosion. Combining some of the brightest young talent in the UK, with the oldest charts from New Orleans archives, their goal is to entertain with skill and charm.

Kid Ory, Sidney Bechet, Louis Armstrong and Jelly Roll Morton would hopefully have approved of their renditions of "When the Saints go Marchin' in", "I wish I could Shimmie like my sister Kate" and "Wild Man Blues". These guys are so hot, that even New Orleans enthusiast Woody Allen has a copy of their record.
