What to expect

Eight Dice Cloth is a fun loving band. Though we take ourselves very seriously, we truly love early jazz and some of it can be so joyful. We love to laugh and enjoy the company of our audiences. You can expect to be wowed by our deep selection of early jazz songs from the 20's and 30's. We don't play the typical songs you hear from every other band in New Orleans, we carefully hand pick songs that we love and know haven't been overplayed.

You can also expect to want to shake loose, cut a rug, dance, and have a good time with us.
