Bio
.. A Washington DC Area Jug Band that provides toe-tapping entertainment that is FUN for all ages. Featuring novelty songs of the 20th Century, the band performs both obscure oldies and lively original tunes. We specialize in humorous music with a slightly off beat twist and have performed at the Austin Grills (Silver Spring location) Sunday Brunch, the Washington Folk Fest, the Folk Society of Greater Washingtons Mini-Fest, the Downtown DC Holiday Market, and the National Zoos Sunset Serenade and ZooFari. .... The band's Cicada Song was one of the featured recordings on NPRs All Songs Considered Open Mike in May of 2004, and was also broadcast on Mary Cliffs Traditions radio show. Other original songs include "There's a Fungus Among Us", and "Ben Laden of Araby". .... Shows are tailored to the occasion. .... You can email the ANGAJB at: ..ANGAJB@yahoogroups.com -
