Cheap Suit Big Tie

About Me

Hello lovers of vintage jazz... after five years, CHEAP SUIT BIG TIE has been sent to the dry cleaners and won't be back. There was some gab of reconstitution, new band members blah, blah, blah - but... I don't think so. Thanks for your cyber-interest and patronage and for showing up at our live gigs. It was fun.I am leaving the site up as these are my songs and they might as well be up as opposed to down. All the best to you and anyone you happen to meet along the road. Jim

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 11/04/2007
Band Website: aceintheholeproductions.ca
Band Members: Jim Houston provides rhythm schisms and lyrical malapropisms on resophonic six-string and four-string banjestic instrumentation and vocalnecessity... Original songs penned in the present, dipped in bathtub gin and spun on shellaced circles of sound create a verve and a vibe from times far more innocent than those in which we now reside.
Influences: ... black & white film, spectator shoes, diamond jacquard, late night radio, snap brims and pork pies, double-breasted suits, a double martini and some lingerie, cafe sunburns, hauled ashes, googlepipes and licorice sticks, kicks, kissers and knockin' a scarf
Sounds Like: High heels on a sidewalk and the flair of a match under a streelamp.
