Using clarinet, cornet, trombone, banjo, tuba and drums, they bring to life old favorites like Royal Garden Blues, South, Riverboat Shuffle, Fidgety Feet, and of course, the classic, “When the Saints Go Marchin’ In.” Palmer Wood, in Atlanta’s Highpoint Magazine calls Hotlanta “a trip to New Orleans without the hangover!”

“The secret weapon of NewFound Road is Tim Shelton, who comes powerfully out of the gate on the bands fifth recording with his trademark rich, chesty baritone roar. There are a lot of instrumentally virtuosic bands out there, a lot of bands with fine singers, but very few who combine technique with taste the way that NewFound Road does.” -- Rick Anderson, All Music Guide
