Jake Leg Stompers- 6.22.24
The Jake Leg Stompers evoke the rebellious spirit and colorful pageantry of American popular music before the Second World War, from the Memphis blues to Gullah ring shouts when jazz began, vaudeville was urgent and folk music was still dangerous. From their home base in Murfreesboro TN, The Jake Leg Stompers have been serving up chicken-fried , pre-war, hokum-billy jug music since 2005. Acclaimed for their spirited, eclectic, and wildly unpredictable performances, the Stompers evoke the ethos and repertoire of early juke joints, speakeasies and 20th-century medicine shows featuring period dress and vintage instruments.
"There is a swagger to the Jake Leg Stompers. they play their version of old timey music and make it relevant to this day and age. It may be old-times but its not elderly."
--Offbeat Magazine
"Jake Leg Stompers resurrect the rent-party vibe of music in feast or famine America between the World Wars, performed with joyous abandon. JLS sing and swing traditional songs on traditional instruments ...washboard, banjo, fiddle, and guzzle tradition like vintage port from a Bama-Jelly jar." ---Nashville Scene
