The Oswald's have a featured selection on the 2003 Strawberry Jam'n Toast To The Arts CD.  They were also featured on the 2002 Hammondfest CD entitled "At The Crossroads".  In addition, the band had a selection included on the 2002 Strawberry Jam'n Toast To The Arts CD entitled "Funky Jambalaya".

The Oswalds are the epitome of themodern New Orleans groove culture. Hard pop with catchy hooks propel
The Oswalds into a realm that fuses rock, soul and high-heeled funk, in a modern radio format that’s appealing to a widespread audience.

The Oswalds mix a new musical gumbo that's hard to classify and harder to forget.
New Orleans native Bobby Levie, a former Los Angeles songwriter, formed The Oswalds
to take the sound and mystique of his musical roots and push that sound into a modern scenario
that’s marketable to all ages. This new sound of arresting instrumental textures, rich avant-pop
vocals and funky bouncing rhythm is genuine, original, fresh and right on time.

“Sleek with innuendo against snazzy lounge jazz, funky rock
and soulful turnabouts.” – Danielle B’iondo, Offbeat Magazine


Hear The Oswald's song entitled Analiesa   included on this year's compilation CD Funky Jambalaya.
