Who are we? We’re the WAZO County Warblers and the Fly Boys. We play and sing early country and old-time music of the 1920s and 30s, when the country was crazy for cowboys, and families gathered around the radio to hear great fiddling, picking and singing. Jazz was new and cowboy bands rushed to learn new swing numbers for their fans.

The Warblers are three songbirds who sing, play and swing their hearts out! Step back in time to hear yesteryear’s top heart songs, tender cowboy ballads, and early swing numbers. Hold your breath in amazement as we swoop through the sidesplitting cackling yodels of WLS Barn Dance stars The Cackle Sisters. Joining the Wazos are the Fly Boys, four guys whose fingers fly along the strings of fiddles, ukes, mandolins, and guitars, dobros, bass and any other nearby instrument that can’t defend itself. Together we present music from the Golden Age of Country Music. If you liked Roy Rogers and Patsy Montana, you’ll find plenty to tap your toes to with us.
