So, this show was my first real taste of what they do. For marketing purposes, I guess they're in the \"country\" category, but in reality they're a mixture of old-style country swing, rockabilly, Tex-Mex and traditional Cuban music. They even have touches of ska here and there - I swear they were starting a cover of Madness' \"One Step Beyond\" at one point, but it turned into something else. They did do a very pretty version of Neil Young's \"Harvest Moon\" - under a bright full moon on a late-August night. <\/p>\n<p><i>Tons<\/i> of fun.
