The Dumpy Jug Bumpers are a string band from Minneapolis, MN that brings back the reckless sounds of country blues, ragtime, and jug band music from the era of shellac 78's. Utilizing resophonic guitar, kazoos, harmonica, double bass and the plunky mandolin-banjo, they transform any stage or street corner into a barrelhouse romp, as their hot licks get you shakin’ and stomping’.

Boo Bradley is good time two-man Hokum junk and jive orchestra who are as fun to watch as they are to listen to. Meeting up in 2007, Boo Mullarky and Bradley Selz took to Madison, Wisconsin's illustrious State Street with the full intention of bringing the rollicking sounds and antics of the early 20th century jug bands back to life. They quickly became known as the go-to act for fun in the sun at Madison's legendary farmers' market. Soon they were being asked to perform at festivals and shows around the state, sharing the stage with well-known roots performers such as the Carolina Chocolate Drops and Frank Fairfield. This refreshing “little jug band that could” features a delightfully rich and clunky sonic pallete that is sure to cure what ails you!
