About the Band

Marvin and the Milkmen are a roots trio out of Boise, Idaho playing what they call Hillbilly Jazz — a swinging, sprawling mix of country standards, jazz classics, and the occasional curveball that keeps audiences on their toes.

The band brings together decades of experience across guitar, bass, and drums, with a shared love of the music that came before the age of everything being overproduced and auto-tuned. Their repertoire spans Hank Williams to Duke Ellington, Patsy Cline to Django Reinhardt, with a pedal steel front and center to tie it all together.

Live, the Milkmen specialize in turning dinner into a music hall and a bar into a listening room. They play the songs people know and love them harder than they remember, and slip in a few they've never heard but will be humming by the time they leave.

Available for restaurants, private events, festivals, and anywhere people appreciate real American music played with craft and a good sense of humor.
