Pack up your kazoo, uke, guitar, or washboard. Bring your voice and dancing shoes too! Or grab a pint and some grub, and just listen.

Join in with the Jug Nuts -- Michael Buonaiuto, Dan Holabaugh, Tom Stewart and Jasmine Moran -- at our user-friendly open jug band jam at The Midway Cafe in Jamaica Plain!

We’ll bring lyrics and chords, and lead the songs (and, if you show up empty-handed, provide some home-made instruments for you to try out) as we explore this good time music rooted in the jazz and blues of the 1920’s and 30’s.

Note: There is a $5 cover charge, at the door. 21+ and CASH ONLY at Midway!

Here's a note about The Midway Cafe, a new venue for us!
The Midway has presented the best acts, and the best VARIETY of acts, in Boston since 1987. Often compared to New York's Knitting Factory for its eclectic mix of styles and crowds, the Midway books everything - even JUG BAND MUSIC!
