Mixed by Jamie Saft at Frank Booth, Brooklyn NY
Mastered by Scott Hull, NYC

Produced by The Four Bags 

THE FOUR BAGS are a captivating blend of aston- ishing tonal colors, mind-bending improvisations, and covers ranging from Schoenberg to 30’s Brazil. Their third record Live at Barbès captures them on their home turf playing to an audience of noisy hipsters, unanswered cell phones, and breaking glass.

“The music they make is wonderfully difficult to define, easy to enjoy.”

– David Garland,

WNYC’s Spinning on Air

“Trombone, accordion, guitar and saxophone might not seem like your idea of a good time, but if that’s the case, you haven’t caught a set by The Four Bags.”

– Time Out, NY
