Philly Gumbo

After working together for 31 years Philly Gumbo is like family. “And,” quips keyboardist Randall Grass,” the funny thing is our vocalist was born about the time the band was formed.” He add she was born to sing the blues, which are spread liberally over their new CD, Come and Get It (Gumbo Records), along with their deep NOLA groove and Grass’ requisite reggae. The production is old school, almost live (“we faced each other in a circle”), a perfect artifact for Gumbo’s devoted dancers.

Tonight, May 20, 7 p.m., ,World Café Live, 3025 Walnut St., 215-222-1400, worldcafelive.com.
