Maker Faire Bay Area 2008
The Tarantulas Jug Band
Music Stage 3 , Sunday 1:00 PM - 1:30 PM
The Tarantulas Jug Band is the official music-maker of Henry Coe State Park, playing good-time music from the 1920s to the 1950s for events at Coe throughout the year. The band’s musical repertoire spans Delta blues, field and work songs, ragtime, tin-pan-alley favorites and even old rockabilly standards. The songs are accompanied by homemade and antique string and percussion instruments played in jug band style.
In the spirit of the Faire, we will be bringing materials to make kazoos and will be showcasing other home made instruments such as cigar box guitars. It should be a lot of fun with the audience playing along.
