Wealth Addict from Red Shoes by Roosevelt Dime
Inspired by Sam Polk's Op-Ed in the NYTimes “For the Love of Money,” this wry Randy Newman-esque look at economic disparity in America is sung over a Green's skittering banjo and Akin's earthy syncopated bass line that lock together like a Scott Joplin rag.

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.”
