The Blue Rags are a revivalist, ragtime boogie-woogie band from Asheville, North Carolina. The band released two albums on the trendsetting Sub Pop label - 1997’s Rag-N-Roll and 1999’s Eat at Joe’s - and toured extensively in the late 90’s. The band’s sound, sometimes described as “punk ragtime”, was an early influence on artists such as The Avett Brothers and Old Crow Medicine Show.
