After a summer of many sell-out gigs and great success at festivals, from the top of the UK to the most southern points The Jake Leg Jug Band are delighted to already have a busy diary for 2026 – with more dates being added all of the time and the hope of making our European debut 🙂 See our forthcoming dates by

Also this year – Warren James & His Lonesome Travellers launched to a terrific success at the 36th Bude Jazz Festival in the beautiful Cornish region of the United Kingdoms! After firmly establishing his name on the UK jazz and blues scene during the last three and a half years as “our skiffle star” (Jazz Rag) Warren was very keen to demonstrate that he is no one-trick pony and has real command of that banjo!
