The Lovestruck Balladeers

The Lovestruck Balladeers are a New York-based quartet that enchants audiences with masterful performances of ragtime, early jazz, and beautiful songs from around the world. Their repertoire is a rare collection of American and international music, ranging from a lost melody in a forgotten mandolin folio to a Mexican waltz, a renegade rearrangement of a swing standard, or a down-home country rag. The band is made up of Jake Sanders, Dennis Lichtman, Sean Cronin, and Dalton Ridenhour, often joined by special guest Mike Davis, and has carried traditional styles into modern times at festivals, jazz clubs, and dance halls across the country.
