"I am a Mumbo Gumbo fan, and really love this band. Hot vocals and solid contributions from all the members (drummer is very good). World music - no bad words - accordian rock (?) yep! You must try one of the CD's listed. Seven is the latest and greatest with many solid tunes. Great horn/sax section. Why do I like the music? Fun to sing along with, excellent harmony, thoughtful lyrics, dance-able tunes (toe tapping at the least!).
Think New Orleans mixed with San Francisco. Lots of energy and love shows in the music. They are having fun making you happy listening to the music."

Can't Gush Enough
