I have watched this video many times. The music is so catchy, the band marches and plays so well. And the captain/drum mayor-I am not sure of the correct term for the leader of a string band-your Charlie Chaplin style is just amazing.
This is the th time I've listened to this since I foud this yesterday. My new wake up music , Morning Has Broken, Chopins AoleanHarp ,and now to jump out of bed Oh,oh,oh what l little moonlight can do o o. Thank for the music.
Listenng and watching again. Have string bands as a whole been recognized as a national treasure. Can you imagine❤this band at the next inauguration (regardless of who gets elected). How do weas citizens get you nominated?
Just thought ofanother sng. We Just Couldn't Say Goodbye. Listen to the Bowells singing this song. On youtube also Singing In The Bathtub. As a kid saw and heard them on old Warner Bros. Càrtoons.
This is the best video I've seen of a string band marching in a parade during the year. I like the fact that it also includes the kick line.
But nothing like all the first prizes you wrote them.
Philadelphia string bands are an American treasure!
YES!
What a fantastic band. Absolutely love it. Thank you.
Wonderful, played ,great and robustness
So American and so WONDERFUL. You can't help but get up and dance and dance and dance.
God bless all string bands in Philly. Hope they never stop
This is absolutely lovely. Very engaging. What a terrific sound we have here. Many thanks.
Good golly;they are absolutely marvelous!!¡
March for peace - around the world.
Greetings from Germany in Juin 22.
Memories of watching the Mummers strut down Broad Street on New Years day. This was just wonderful!!
Kudos to the arranger. The counter melodies are brilliant. They give the piece a nice swaying lilt.
Just love it, I play it over and over, it's a great song and an amazing string band. Well done to all the musicians 🎶🎶🎶🎼

They are Mummers. Not just any band. They are from Philadelphia.
Great performance! Good song selection. (That arrangement is an ear worm.) Thanks for posting this. The best of Southy String Bands.

If you have never been to Philly for the Mummers parade on New Years day, you gotta do it
How lovely is that!
This is great.
Seems right tonight is the Full Moon, Aug. 1, 2023!
I'm from South Africa we have something similar but our guys cannot do it like you guys
Loved this arrangement❤second best to Billy Holiday's very sexy rendition. Long may string bands reign.
I have never seen a band like this, it sounds great and it looks funny.
These bands are Mummers and are special to Philadelphia Pennsylvania.
Just thought of another old song that would fit this band perfectly. Swinging On A Hammock. Almost wore out my mom's Guy Lombardo record.
