Juggernauts

What do you get when you blend jazz, blues ragtime, swing and original music with washboards, washtubs, kazoos, jugs and various other sundry hardware? Nothing less than the strange concoction called the JUGGERNAUT JUG BAND.
With the release of 7 C.D’s, “Jugstaposition”, “Don’t Try This At Home”, “Perhaps You Don’t Recognize Us”, “Christmas Covers”, “As We Like It”, "Live Jug Band Jubilee", and newest release "You Mean We Get Paid For This?" plus their video “Juggernaut Follies”, more and more people will be “recognizing” them. Over the years, they have appeared with Leon Russell, Arlo Guthrie, John Hartford, Jonathan Edwards, Riders In the Sky, Bill Monroe, Doc Watson, Mary Chapin Carpenter and many others.
THE JUGGERNAUT JUG BAND, with founder Roscoe Goose (vocals, washboard, trumpet, cans, blues harp, bells , snare and jug) and original member The Amazing Mr. Fish, (vocals, walking bass, nose flute, washtub bass) have been performing since the mid 1960’s. The current lineup, adds Skip Tracer (vocals, guitar) and Smiley Habanero (vocals, guitar, mandolin ) While members of the band are accomplished musicians, “They don’t let virtuosity get in the way of having fun.” (Washington Post) Each performance is a challenge to the audience to have as much fun as the band. Don’t let their antics fool you though. Their exuberant music is the result of skillfully conceived arrangements and unique vocal harmonies. Recently they have played The Kentucky State Fair (7th yr.) Master Musicians Festival, Kent State Folk Festival, Great American Music Fest (Branson, MO) Blissfest-Cross Village, MI, Strawberry Folk Fest, Sacramento Jazz Jubilee, Las Vegas Jazz Festival, Millennium Center, B.C.
