These pioneers were able to successfully spearhead a resurgence in Jug Band Music in the 60's. Without their contributions, Jug Band Music would certainly not be what it is today.We are thrilled to have them join us to celebrate one of America's truest art forms in the city which it was born.

These bands are posted to the line-up at this time:
