The Sportin' Lifers - Cigars, Billiards, Lunches (2015)

Contemporary, classic-sounding Jump Blues, Swing, and Rhythm.

"Cigars Billiards Lunches" is the exciting debut album from Portland's hottest vintage blues ensemble, The Sportin Lifers. With a mix of blues, hot jazz, a dash of swing and a healthy helping of original rock and roll verve, their new album is an incredibly strong and diverse collection of original compositions.

“We are really proud to say that all the songs on the album are originals except for one cover, (I’ve Got A) Longing in My Heart”, which was originally recorded by Little Esther.” Reveals power vocalist Erin Wallace. “Whit, our guitarist, wrote most of the material and I wrote a couple of tunes. A couple of them we wrote together.”
