The Northside Southpaws are an entirely unique mandolin/guitar duo who perform high-energy string ragtime and other early American Roots musical styles on left-handed resonator instruments. Based in Chicago, NSSP released their debut cd, STOMP GLIDE WOBBLE, in early 2008. On this all-instrumental effort, duo partners John Hasbrouck (mandolin) and Matt Gandurski (guitar) crank out their interpretations of classic stringband tunes by such marvelously obscure acts as The Mississippi Mud Steppers, The Scottdale String Band, and The Three Stripped Gears.
