New Roots music: The Floozies blast tuba, trombone, tap dance and stomp orchestral percussion. The singer plays guitar the way most people play the piano.Formed in 2003 the Floozies first toured Ireland in a horse-drawn gypsy wagon. Joey Welch developed his aggressive, unique guitar style busking the streets of 4 continents, playing the guitar like a piano-- or like Stevie Wonder on the Clavinova. Welch has toured the U.S. playing 260 shows a year. The Floozies recorded three albums with world-renowned engineer/producer Steve Albini (Nirvana, Pixies) and garnered accolades from all over the world. The Floozies’ 2007 and 2008 releases both debuted at #11 on the CMJ national Top Adds chart, then spent 8 - 10 weeks on the CMJ Top 100.
