Get ready to explore a great American musical tradition. Jug band music is the blues, Dixieland jazz, old-time bluegrass, and traditional country music all rolled up into one. Skiffle is a variation of jug band that often includes sax, clarinet, cornet, and other brass/wind instruments, as well as more contemporary “pop” tunes. Students are encouraged to bring jugs, kazoos, guitars, banjos, and even horns. The only requirement is that you must have a good handle on your instrument (except jug, we’ll teach that) and can play a basic three-chord song in G or C at least. Bring an open mind and heart and let’s have a good time!
