ORIGINAL JUG BAND MEMBERS JIM KWESKIN & GEOFF MULDAUR COME TOGETHER TO
TREAT FANS IN THOUSAND OAKS

One spring night in 1963, 23-year-old Jim Kweskin was onstage at
Cambridge, Mass.' now-storied Club 47. He was billed as a solo
performer, but as was his wont, he was joined by a gaggle of local
pickers, including the lanky, bespectacled Fritz Richmond on washtub
bass. After the show, Maynard Solomon, the president of Vanguard
Records, sauntered up to Kweskin and offered him a contract for "that
band." Kweskin deferred, saying, "that's not a band, but give me a few
months and I'll put one together for you."

Thus The Jug Band was born.

The Jug Band, featuring blues singer and multi-instrumentalist Geoff
Muldaur by Kweskin's side, was a phenomenon, melding hippie groove
with early American blues, jazz and folk idioms and introducing the
almost lost musical mayhem of Harry Smith's "Anthology of American
Folk Music" to the masses. Considered folk revival heroes, the Jim
Kweskin Jug Band parlayed their good-time music at venues from
Cambridge coffeehouses to the Newport Folk Festival to the psychedelic
ballrooms of San Francisco, where they shared billing with the likes
of Big Brother and the Holding Company and the Doors. Jim led the band
on guitar and vocals, shaping its good-humored mix of old-time folk,
jazz, blues, and 1920s and '30s "whoopie music."


Eventually the band splintered, sending members like Kweskin; Muldaur;
the latter's then-wife and future hit-maker, Maria Muldaur; banjo man
Bill Keith; and harmonica ace turned cult leader Mel Lyman out into
the wider musical world.

In 2008, filmmaker Todd Kwait explored the roots of the jug band style
in the documentary, "Chasin' Gus Ghost." The film, which spanned a
timeline from the '20s to the present, became a tribute to Richmond,
who died in 2005.

Filmed concerts, arranged by Kwait in Richmond's honor, brought
Kweskin and Muldaur back together for the first time in decades, and
the duo is now on the road delighting jug band fans the world 'round.

The concert is presented by Bodie House Music and Regenerate Films as
part of the Open Borders concert series at Four Friends Gallery.

JIM KWESKIN & GEOFF MULDAUR
When: 8:00 p.m. Saturday, Jan 19
Where: Four Friends Gallery, 1408 E Thousand Oaks Blvd, Thousand Oaks, CA
Tickets: $30
Info: 818-621-8309; www.bodiehouse.com

I want the kind of women that her, love can not never dry up,and don't matter
how mad I make her she still loves me. I just want a perfect women for me. I
know she out there looking for me, but every second I'll waste she geeting
farter away.

	 I want to find someone to share my life with someone to buy valintimes for in
feburary . I just want a perfect women for me I know she out there looking for
