Band from the song "Squeeze Box" by country singer Mark Wills, from his 1996 self-titled debut album. The band features barefoot multi-instrumentalist Sweet Marie:

Take a left at the Texaco, gonna see Sweet Marie

She plays down at Jimbeaux's Gumbo and Washtub

In calico and bare feet in a band called the Mudbugs

The chorus makes it clear that Sweet Marie is lusted after by the narrator of the song, who's in the audience:

I wanna be your squeezebox

Always at your fingertips

I wanna be your blues harp

A little closer to your lips

Let me be your washboard

You can play me fast or slow

Squeezebox, blues harp, washboard, baby

Anything you can hold
