Band Members: Miss Bubbles Moloney leads with her Sublimely Soulful Voice, aided & abetted by the Most Blueswailing Chomper, who brings the low and sometimes remarkably high vocal tones, along with his Memphis guitar licks. Matt The Hat, the tallest man in showbiz (outside The Harlem Globetrotters) infuses the groovy Hammond organ & Wurlitzer piano. Our rhythm section features Ace drummer Paul, and Michael our very own Al Pacino on funktastic Fender Bass. The SD Horns come in the shape of two gorgeous girlies, Nat "The Sax Kitten" on Tenor Sax & Lil' Reenie Lazzerini on Alto Sax/Flute/Bongos, ably accompanied by Herby'The Man'Herbert on Trumpet and occasional funky Tambourine.
