The guys in the photo are holding brass horns of various types. Turkish music is based on wood winds and stringed instruments like a lute or a knee violin and a small drum.

That group looks a typical small brass band complete with tuba and base drum.

I agree Chuck. The Shingle House Band appears to be made up of ordinary people of various backgrounds.
Can anyone read the sign on the building behind the band? It can't say what I think it says.

Went back to original photo. I think the sign says Commercial House? Also those are trolley tracks the guy with the tuba on the left is straddling.

I think the guy on the right with the Napoleon hat is the leader.

You mean "Hommirual House" ?

That's what I thought it was originally.

Most probably. Think I posted a photo card a while back of a trolley in Shinglehouse

The image on the forum was hard to read. I thought it might be some variation on the creek name that runs through. That did not work so I went to find original photo. Still not clear but I was able to figure out it was Commercial. Leading "C" is partially obscured and the trail ci seems to have been poorly painted, hence the confusion.

It looked like, HOMMI RUAL HOUSE, to me. Not funny, just what it looked like.
