Come celebrate Mardi Gras at The Palms! Rhythmtown-Jive plays infectious dance music, delivering rhythm & blues, zydeco, jump-swing, rock & roll and New Orleans gems. They’ll be joined by The K-Girls (Keta Bill and Kathy Kennedy from Big Bang Beat) and Vicki Randle to perform songs in the styles made popular by classic “girl groups” and female singers of New Orleans.

The band is fronted by vocalist and bassist Tim Eschliman (founding member of the Christmas Jug Band), whose credits include stints with Etta James, Commander Cody, and the Moonlighters, and includes Mike Rinta, Michael Peloquin, Ken “Snakebite” Jacobs, Tim Eschliman, Kevin Zuffi and Kevin Dillon.
