The Filucy Hootchie Kootchie Band was Steve and Kristi Nebel with Pat Spaeth playing multiple instruments,
primarily accordion, and humorist Andy Rebsamen who played guitar, harmonica, and baritone horn. This is a
compilation of two cassette projects recorded with the band. There is a lot of really corny humor on this CD. Beware.

These recordings were made in Longbranch, Washington in the ’90s.  It was a very social time in the lives of the Nebels.

    Longbranch gets its own song and dance:
    Steve and Kristi Nebel, Peninsula residents and owners of
    Icebird Record Company have released Longbranch, the Album. The songs were written by Arnie “Birdman of Longbranch” and Red, “The Pie Lady” Phillips. Tapes are available at the Longbranch Mercantile, and the Home Feed and Grocery Store. If you want to sing along, here is the first verse of “The Longbranch Shuffle”; “Bob Met Sue at the Improvement Club/They caught a bad case of true love/Now Bob has a peg leg, Sue has ruffles/Together they do the Longbranch Shuffle” Ann Phillips gives the directions for the Longbranch Shuffle as follows: step 1: facing your partner down, up, knees together; step 2; down, up knees apart; step 3; repeat steps 1 and 2. “No need to move your feet says Ms. Phillips, “just make sureyour knees don’t meet.” Red adds, “this dance can be done in three-quarter time and is then the “Longbranch Waltz”. Another number called “When You’re in Longranch You’re Not Far From Home” features a musical saw. Peninsula frogs, seagulls, and cows also sing back-up on some selections.

    The Filucy Hootchie Kootchie Band is a five-piece group from Longbranch, WA. The mix a precarious array of styles including traditional bluegrass, music from the Celtic lands, and skiffle. A sense of humor can be heard on “Dead Man’s Chest” and in the fact that the tape begins and ends with the group holding a press conference with barnyard animals. Home proud songs and the able accordion playing of Ingeborg Rodriguez make this a fine and above all else, fun cassette.
