Tippy Canoe & the Paddlemen play popular music or what the kids call pop. Now their sound may not exactly be the popular music of today, but it encapsulates what has made people smile, laugh and talk about over the last nine decades. Your ears will perk up when you hear their potent toe-tappers or youll gladly wrap yourself in the melancholy they cast when performing a dreamy ballad.
Songbird and uke-slinger, Tippy Canoe, is on a mission to bring sincere uplift in a severely down-slanted era. Her voice is a mixture of the 60's girl group sound and classic country with its own quirky nature shining through. Her songwriting bears the stamp of a person who has absorbed a variety of influences. These range from 20's and 30's acts like The Boswell Sisters or Jack Teagarden to 50's and 60's performers like Brenda Lee or The Chiffons and catchy post-punk bands such as Squeeze or Blondie.
You can call it old-timey, you can call it retro, you can even make up a word and call it 20sjazzcountrydoowoppop, but whatever the moniker just let yourself go and enjoy it.
