News for 2022: some of the jug band personnel were not able to commit this year due to family and business issues... that doesn't mean they absolutely wont make it, but currently are unlikely...

So,... we talked it over...whether to give up for 2022, or carry on with a show that has a lot of CJB people and a lot of those tunes... and we decided we had to go for it!... to keep some shred of holiday normalcy for ourselves and our audience...

It's unfortunate, but it mirrors the troubles many businesses are going through these days. It's important to note also that none of the CJB players have made it on all of the tours. Everyone has taken at least one year off for whatever reason.. so these things are to be expected from time to time.

BUT!... we have assembled a cast of characters to bring you your musical holiday wackiness in a show called "A Back Porch Jug Band Christmas", featuring members of The Christmas Jug Band, Back pOrchEstra and Dan Hick's Holidaze in Hicksville. Performing this year are Greg Dewey, Tim Eschliman, Snakebite Jacobs, Candy Girard, Paul Robinson, Henry Salvia and Paul Olguin... plus Special guest Shana Morrison as noted on the some of dates below.

This new show for 2022 includes a good handful of Dan's humorous holiday tunes, some of his other classics, a few Back pOrchEstra tracks (2022 album), and many CJB hits including the relatively recent holiday single: "Christmas On the Moon," poking fun at space billionaires.
