Description
What began as a weekly jug band jam in the mid-1970s has grown into the Christmas Jug Band, a staple of Bay Area holiday music with a catalog five albums deep. A rotating cast of players from noteworthy bands including Commander Cody, Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks, Country Joe and the Fish and more, the CJB plays original holiday tunes, parodies of classic songs and "jugbandizations of seasonal favorites." For the uninitiated, that means that down-home instruments such as the washboard, the jaw harp and the mighty jug, are front and center.
