Christabel and the Jons is a southern swing quartet that blends familiar standards with modern vintage-sounding originals. Their sound is an acoustic and colorful blend of vintage swing and Appalachian folk. Christabel's distinctive, sultry voice and heartfelt songwriting, complemented by vintage stage attire, gives the performance a 1920’s speakeasy feel.

For me to say this cd is good would not be enough to express just how good it is.
If you are tired of the ho-hum tunes on the radio being played over and over again and are searching for songs with real substance to them, look no further. If you seek up-beat road music for a trip to Florida, a trip out west, a road to anywhere - this collection is the one for you. I can listen to most anything and pull something decent out of it. But Christabel and the Jons have a feel, rhythm, and talent that is undeniable, unusual yet familiar - and it grabbed me immediately. You'll want to tap your feet, slap your knee, kiss your sweetheart... have a drink and unwind all at the same time.
It is sobering to me that such a group like them is out there. They play their own instruments. They write the majority of their own work. And they capture an ideal that in this day and age is becoming more and more extinct. Not enough people search for good artists anymore. They turn on the radio and find themselves singing meaningless garbage. Give this group a chance. You will not be disappointed.

Wonderful set of songs! Great follow-up to their first offering, Love & Circumstance. The band delivers old fashioned musical values applied to contemporary themes; an homage delivered with great technique and talent.
