We have performed at coffeehouses, festivals, weddings, dances, Mardi Gras events, and restaurants across New England for the past 20 years.. The Squeezebox Stompers play a unique and varied Americana Roots repertoire including everything from Cajun, Zydeco, New Orleans Classics, Folk, Blues, and Originals.

Great band - very profressional

These guys showed up on time (actually a little earlier than expected but that's a good thing), played great Zydeco music, the sound level for this retirement community was spot on, and they were easy and pleasant to work with. I would definitely recommend them.

Squeezebox Stompers are an upbeat crowd pleaser!

I would highly recommend the Squeezebox Stompers. The band was prompt, courteous, professional and really listened to what our goals were for our event. The music was lively and upbeat - we had several guests asking us how to contact them for their future events.
