Have you tried Django Reinhardt and the Hot Club of France? It may be a bit later than the 20s but it’s very different and good.

Fats Waller for piano from the 1920’s.

Don’t know who you’ve been listening to; but you might want to consider…Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Kid Ory, or King Oliver.

Or look through YouTube…1920s Jazz…for other ideas.
