The Muddy Basin Ramblers are a favorite in Taipei's live music scene for their blend of "old-time" American music styles, including early 1920s and 1930s blues, swing jazz, bluegrass, and string-band and fiddle music. Formed by a group of US/UK expatriates in 2003, the Ramblers have played events big and small throughout Ihla Formosa, including the National Theatre and Concert Hall's Summer Jazz Party and the Migration Music Festival. Outside of Taiwan, the Ramblers have headlined the Yokohama Jug Band Festival in Japan and the Gloomy Island Blues Festival in Hong Kong. With their arsensal of homemade instruments, guitars, violins, harmonicas, and brass horns, this seven-piece band are beloved by audiences everywhere for their joyously cacophonic, irresistibly danceable music and soulful, good-time vibes.

The band have also received accolades from the American Independent Music Awards, with nominations for Best Blues Song Dharma Train, and best American roots producer (bandleader David CHEN).
