I saw Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players on Conan O'Brien a couple of weeks ago. I was shocked to see something so offbeat and interesting on network television.

There is plenty of info on their website, but basically they are a father, mother and daughter act that writes and performs songs about old slides that they find at estate sales. The father plays piano and sings, mom works the projector and eight year old Rachel plays drums and harmonica and sings.



Read a New York Post story about them here.

There is also a documentary about them here.


So now I have to see their show next time I'm in New York.
