A quintet that's "the talk of rhythm town," according to the eponymous 1943 Louis Jordan and His Tympany Five song. The band, which consists of Big Moe, Little Moe, Four-Eyed Moe, No Moe, and Eat Moe, "came out of nowhere / And that don't mean a thing / They rate high and you'll know why / When you hear them swing."

The band later appeared as part of a Jordan-themed 1990 West End musical.
