Harry Allen, Howard Alden, Aaron Diehl, Trombone Shorty, Danny Armstrong (boy, howdy, do I like this guy), Madeline Peyroux to name just a very few.

OK. I would have suspected Allen, Alden and Shorty. Some Ari Ambrose might be at the edges of your taste. I don't know of a lot of guys playing in that old style and I was wondering if there was someone I had not heard of. I don't know Danny Armstrong but I will look into him. Probably not my cup of tea but I like to support and to be as knowledgeable about the art form as possible. Thanks for responding.
