Inspired by the classic jug bands of the 1920's and 30's, the How Long Jug Band blends kazoos, washboards and jugs seamlessly with conventional guitars, mandolins and banjos. Since their start in 2010, they've released three albums, have performed at the National Jug Band Jubilee in Louisville, Kentucky four times and were inducted into the Jug Band Hall of Fame. While they sometimes slip a modern song into the mix, the How Longs mostly draw from early blues, ragtime and jazz, digging into obscure songs to find lyrics and arrangements that are too good to be forgotten.
