Lou Gold

Lewis Milton Goldwasser (1885–1950), better known by his stage name Lou Gold, was a composer, pianist and band leader popular in New York City from the late-1910s to the early 1930s. His orchestra was an all-white band (as were most of the commercially successful bands in those days due to the limitations placed on African American musicians at the time) playing African American music active at first during the late 1910s and early 1920s in live music venues.
