A jazzy, sexy tribute straight from the jukebox of rhythm and blues pioneer, Louis Jordan, Five Guys Named Moe has become an international sensation.

He's broke and heartbroken after his lovely Lorraine left him, and while listening to the radio alone at 5:00am, out of nowhere five guys named Moe appear from the radio.
