Pokey LaFarge, the mastermind behind The South City Three, crafts a glowingly nostalgic yet contemporary take on riverboat ragtime, early jazz, and country blues. Formed in 2009 with Joey Glynn, Adam Hoskins, and Ryan Koenig, the core group evolved into a broader lineup that continues to captivate with parlor guitar, harmonica, washboard, and horn colors. Their music blends period-throwback aesthetics with modern performance energy, delivering a sound that feels both old-world and alive.
