The Christmas Jug Band are stalwart purveyors of the jug-a-billy mystique!

The band features players from Back pOrchEstra, “The Hot Licks” (Dan Hick’s band), Marty Balin, Those Darn Accordions and New Orleans Nightcrawlers.
The show will include mostly CJB tunes, plus a good handful of Dan’s humorous holiday tunes, some of his other classics, and a few Back pOrchEstra ditties as well.
