Title: High Jinks Delegation - Jug Band from Brussels, Belgium
Post by: The Gloth on September 05, 2016, 03:09:06 PM

Hi folks !

Having no jug in the band, I'm not sure we can be called a "jug band", but we started two years ago from that style of playing, and extended to other repertoirs... I play harmonica in the band, and sing some of the songs. Here's the link to our demo on Soundcloud.

The songs :

"Plastic Jesus" - The Goldcoast Singers
"Weed Smoker's Dream" - Harlem Hamfats (I sing that one ^^)
"Walking Stick" - Leon Redbone
"Walk Right In" -  Cannon's Jug Stompers
"Bath Water On" - Memphis Minnie & Kansas Joe McCoy

Hi !

We've got an album out, still playing songs of Memphis Jug Band, Bo Carter, Harlem Hamfats and other stuff, and we made a video for our version of "On the Road Again" by the Memphis Jug. Hope you enjoy !
