Based in Brighton, England, The Speakeasy Three does a great version of Cab Calloway's "Minnie the Moocher." They released their single early this year and I included a promo video below.
I tried to find out more about the trio but only found their Facebook Page. Here's the highlights from the About Section of their fan page:
Three Bad-Ass Babes Singing Their Little Hearts Out!
Ladies and Gentlemen! Prepare to swing, sway, sizzle and swoon! The Speakeasy Three are rolling out their show-stopping, room-swinging, after dark agenda for your delight.
Influences:
Influences on the sound, style and personality of the group include The Andrews Sisters, Billie Holiday, Etta James, Josephine Baker, Marilyn Monroe, Marlene Dietrich, Edith Piaf...
Like I said, not much info, but they do a good version of the song and have a good sound to them. Check them out.
You can hear "The Speakeasy Three" on Swing City Radio's - Modern Swing rotation.
