MISS MAYBELL AND HER RAGTIME ROMEOS
Charlie Judkins and Miss Maybell (Lauren Sansaricq)
Also featuring Marty Eggers on Bass and Don Neely on Clarinet/sax, both well-known
Bay Area ragtime specialists and founders of the Royal Society Jazz Orchestra in San Francisco!
We are delighted that newlyweds Charlie Judkins and Miss Maybell are participating in the West Coast Ragtime Festival this year (Rancho Cordova, Nov. 21-23, 2025). They share a mutual, lifelong passion for pre-1920s popular music and have complimentary musical skills. With a wink to the pretentious barrelhouse hoi palloi, thus was born Miss Maybell who is accompanied by Charlie.
Adding to Lauren's and Charlie's combined strength is that their repertoire is built largely on obscure songs and verses, happily and skillfully imbued with life, lilt, and spontaneity to boot. Lauren and Charlie are themselves serious early 78 RPM record collectors. They know, and revere, the details about the recordings of the pioneering composers, instrumentalists, vaudevillian singers, and lyricists, and familiarize themselves with the nuanced vocal and instrumental differences between versions of given songs sung by the same singers on various takes and record labels. These are a "not to miss" duo!
Miss Maybell & Charlie Judkins play a large repertoire of early Jazz, Ragtime, and Blues from the 1890s - 1920s. They source their tunes from dusty old records and antique sheet music, giving new life to songs created over 100 years ago! With this unique sound and dedication they were recently featured on NPR's "Person, Place, Thing" with Randy Cohen. They have played and sold out residencies at the legendary Birdland Theater. They also have played on festival bills throughout the country and abroad. In Europe, they recently headlined "Sevilla Swing" in Seville, Spain, and they sold out a week of shows at Marian's Jazz Room in Bern, Switzerland. Miss Maybell has also been featured on Dan Aykroyd's "Blues Breaker" Blues Program on Sirius XM Radio. She has also been awarded "Best Of NH - Americana Music."
"Miss Maybell plays banjo and taps her steel brushes on a tricked-out washboard. She also commands an impressive kazoo, but the secret weapon they unleash is Maybell's vocals, deep and strong enough to join an angel choir with the likes of Bessie Smith and Billie Holiday." - New Hampshire Magazine
