Seamlessly combining the groove of classic feel-good Rhythm and Blues with traditional acoustic Americana instrumentation, Roosevelt Dime has crafted a signature style of syncopated New Orleans rhythms, boogie woogie banjo, swinging blues guitar, and searingly soulful vocals in a vibrant mix that the New York Times classifies as "...a perpetual crowd pleaser.”
