Mud Junket is all about bluesy, funky, rootsy rock 'n' roll. Think of it as a trip...a fun trip to some river-bottom town someplace spiritually between New Orleans and Chicago and Austin. There you'll find a place where the music is a little loud, a little funky and always rockin'. The dance floor's hot, the drinks are cold and the people are just flat friendly. It's in that joint you'll find a five-piece band banging out funky, rootsy, rockin' tunes with a hint of the Bayou and a dash of Route 66. That's Mud Junket. Formed in 2005 as Mudcat, the band has played benefits for a variety of community organizations in Seattle and the San Juan Islands, private parties and watering holes across western Washington.
