About this Event
Jazz With a Cowboy Hat
Honky-Tonk Jump plays swingin' Texas dance hall music in the tradition of Bob Wills, Milton Brown, Ernest Tubb and Spade Cooley with a sprinkling of Hank Williams and other early honky-tonk legends. This band rustles up a rhythm roundup with accordion, twin fiddles, guitar, pedal steel, mandolin, bass, drums and vocals. Their music features signature twin and triple leads on accordion, fiddle, pedal steel and guitar with soulful vocals, all backed by a hard-swingin’ rhythm section. This band has fun and it’s contagious!

“The crowd of over 600 were roaring their approval beginning the moment they heard the first twang from the stage. Honky-Tonk Jump played old favorites and new tunes with an ease that comes from the many years they've all played professionally." --MIssissippi Music
