The Hammerhead Horns are a five piece group that play old-time Barrelhouse Blues, Ragtime,
New Orleans Boogie Woogie, Swing, R&B, Torch Ballads and Gospel. They cover the best
stuff from the 1920s through the 1960s, playing everything from Fats Domino to Billie Holiday
to Ray Charles to Muddy Waters. In addition to this wonderful catalog of songs they include
some of their own compositions that fit right in stylistically and have become audience favorites.
Kinetic drumming mixed with rollicking boogie woogie piano, plunger-driven and brass horns interplay and heartfelt vocals. The band and vocalist Leslie Barkman have been nominated for Capital District “Eddie Awards.”
