The common thread throughout the music I sing is that it is from sheet music, cylinders, or 78s that were popular between 1890 and 1940, with the heaviest concentration in the 1920s.

This encompasses various styles of music, including blues, jazz, pop, ragtime, and country.  I’m gonna list some extra words for the benefit of search-breadth: trad jazz, traditional jazz, hot jazz, jug band, vocal harmony, tin pan alley, vaudeville, vitaphone, vintage, americana, delta blues.  I present shows in different styles by having different instrumentation in my band if I have a band, and by choosing repertoire that is appropriate to the theme.
