“Roberta Donnay and the Prohibition Mob Band bring to new life the blues and jazz
of the 1920s and ’30s, diving deep into the music of Bessie Smith, Ma Rainey,

A longtime resident of the Bay Area, Donnay was a singer and percussionist with the iconic band Dan Hicks and The Hot Licks since 2005....
