Globetrotting, time-traveling and genre-busting, The Four Bags have been performing chamber music for the shuffle generation for over a decade.

The band's newest venture portrays the Waltz through the lens of their their whimsical sonic slide-show approach. With a healthy disregard for convention, the group conjures a modern approach to the waltz by twisting, splitting, smearing and boiling the beloved dance into a multi-faceted, global journey.  

Combining the vibrancy of modern jazz and popular music with the sophistication of a classical chamber group, The Four Bags feature a captivating blend of Trombone, Accordion, Guitar and Woodwinds. With mature improvisation and a wide array of tonal colors, The Bags approach music from Schoenberg to the Beastie Boys in a way that is "wonderfully difficult to define, easy to enjoy."-D.
