About Milk Crate Bandits
The Milk Crate Bandits make music to make you dance, smile, and party. It’s music born on the streets. Walking down the streets of Vancouver you’ll see them on their stolen plastic thrones and playing the sounds of New Orleans.
Yes, some may say they’re crooks but the petty theft of a milk crate from a back alley is surely absolved by the love they’ll give you if you come and listen. The joy of the music will make you jump, holler, and shout. Some even say that being party to a misdemeanour makes it all the more fun!
The Vancouver-based New Orleans-style band includes Canadian trombone legend Brad Shigeta, a former member of the Ellington Band in New York; bassist Jen Hodge, a lindy hop star, Jack Ray on banjo, and Chris O’Dea, a member of the Australian circus and jazz show Scotch and Soda playing saxophone and clarinet. All also do vocals....
