The Mud Bugs

About Me

Kit Jones started creating "The Mud Bugs sound" in 1991 to feature his love of swamp, jam'n, beach junk, blues, country rock, Bayou sounds, southern rock and especially improv music with original members Paul, Kozy, Bill & Kit.........although band members have changed, whether doing acoustic gigs or rock gigs, we don't stray too far from the original theme - "Have fun, get good tone, get their toes tappin & don't take it too serious". Sorry.... we don't take alot of silly pictures of crowds & such "or ourselves" for that matter. We support local bands-so should you! What a great ride. fantasy layout powered by HOT FreeLayouts.com / MyHotComments
