Philly Gumbo
“Philly Gumbo’s distinctive blend of New Orleans R & B, blues, reggae and soul has made it a unique and popular presence on the Philadelphia music scene for thirty years. Over the years the band has been recognized by Philadelphia Magazine in their annual ‘Best Of Philadelphia’ issues and by The Philadelphia Music Foundation, as well as having played most of the top venues and major events in the area.” – Soultracks magazine
“Philly Gumbo creates a personal pastiche of rhythm and blues, rock and reggae, that’s not just irresistible, but transcendent.” – Philadelphia City Paper
