    NEWS FROM: National Jug Band Jubilee www.jugbandjubilee.org For Immediate Relief * Contact: * Jug band music relieves tension Heather Leoncini (502) 417-1107 [email protected] New programs and more great bands are coming to 14th National Jug Band Jubilee LOUISVILLE, KY, (July 25, 2018) – It is hard to believe in the midst of the summer heat, but fall is fast approaching and with it the 2018 National Jug Band Jubilee. The free, all-day festival will take place on Saturday, September 15, 2018 at the Brown-Forman Amphitheater in Waterfront Park. The 14th year of the Jubilee will feature a few additions, among them a panel discussion on Friday, September 14 dealing with racial issues within the history of jug band music. What will never change at the Jubilee is the quality of the music. This year the festival will offer another top-notch lineup of early jazz, jug band, and string band performers. The duo of Chris Rodriguez and Abby the Spoon Lady is the act that has drawn the most attention thus far. The Asheville, N.C.-based musicians are Youtube sensations thanks to their videos showcasing Abby’s percussion skills and Rodriguez’s unique blues- Appalachian style guitar and vocals. Another highlight of this year’s festival is Hubby Jenkins, a talented multi- instrumentalist from Brooklyn who is also a member of the Grammy-award winning Carolina Chocolate Drops. Academics and Seattle songsters Ben Hunter and Joe Seamons will take part in the Friday night panel discussion. The Jubilee will release more details on that at a later date, but we can tell you that Hunter and Seamons will dazzle the audience at the festival with their combination of banjo and fiddle breakdowns, a cappella field hollers, and gospel tunes.

  • “Take a Whiff on Me”: Leadbelly‟S Library of Congress Recordings 1933-1942 — an Assessment
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by SAS-SPACE Blues & Rhythm, No. 59, March-April 1991, pp. 16-20; No. 60, May 1991, pp. 18-21 revised with factual corrections, annotations and additions, with details regarding relevant ancillary CDs, and tables identifying germane CD and LP releases of Leadbelly‘s recordings for the Library of Congress; and those for the American Record Corporation in 1935 “Take A Whiff On Me”: Leadbelly‟s Library of Congress Recordings 1933-1942 — An Assessment John Cowley From the mid-1960s, a small trickle of long-playing records appeared featuring black music from the holdings of the Archive of Folk Culture (formerly Archive of Folk Song) at the Library of Congress, in Washington, D.C. A few were produced by the Archive itself but, more often than not, arrangement with record companies was the principal method by which this material became available. One of the earliest collections of this type was a three-album boxed set drawn from the recordings made for the Archive by Huddie Ledbetter — Leadbelly — issued by Elektra in 1966. Edited by Lawrence Cohn, this compilation included a very useful booklet, with transcriptions of the songs and monologues contained in the albums, a résumé of Leadbelly‘s career, and a selection of important historical photographs. The remainder of Leadbelly‘s considerable body of recordings for the Archive, however, was generally unavailable, unless auditioned in Washington, D.C. In the history of vernacular black music in the U.S., Leadbelly‘s controversial role as a leading performer in white ‗folk‘ music circles has, for some, set him aside from other similar performers of his generation.

    The Pumps is an Eau Claire based band that plays a variety of blues influenced rock and roll. The members The Chippewa Valley Blues Society presents were highly influenced by the music of the 60’s and 70’s by bands like The Beatles, The Band, Rolling Stones, Cream, Young Rascals and the Animals. All bands that formed their sound based on early American blues. The Pumps play tunes by a variety of blues artists such as John Lee Hooker, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Delbert McClinton, Muddy Waters and The Hoop Snakes. Frank Juodis holds down the band on drums with a style honed while growing up near Chicago. Frank’s older brother who is also a drummer gave him the incentive to excel even if it meant getting into trouble for changing his brothers kit to fit his left handed style. Guitarist Tom Brill grew up in the Milwaukee area and has played in many Eau Claire based bands since graduating from UWEC. Many of these bands have obtained much notoriety in the Midwest. Tom teaches guitar in a downtown studio and has a small recording business that he runs out of his home. He is a master of many styles and has a knack for creating a variety of original sounds. Buck Barrickman on bass has been hanging around the Eau Claire music scene since high school playing in a ton of local bar bands. His style on bass has evolved over the years to the rock bottom feel that rounds out the trio. He and Frank give the band a well grounded sound that shakes up the crowd.
