Influences: The sound? All those bad-ass jazz cats from the 50s and 60s, and those innovative classic poppers and rockers from the 60s forward.

The vibe? The Rat Pack. Beatnik culture. The original "Nutty Professor" and all the other classic films and television shows from the 50s and 60s, in dramatic black and white and in glorious living color. Film and pulp noir. Cartoons from the 40s to the 60s. Anything retro, including classic cars, googie architecture and mid-century modern design. Clothing styles of the 50s and 60s, stiletto heels and sharkskin suits. Top- shelf cocktails and swanky lounges.
