Birmingham Jug Band


The Birmingham Jug Band were one of the first Jug Bands ever to record. They played popular dance band jazz, using the jug as a novelty element. The eponymous jug sound is made by taking a jug (usually made of glass or stoneware) and buzzing the lips into its mouth from about an inch away. As with brass instruments, changes in pitch are controlled by altering lip tension, and an accomplished jug player could have a two octave range.
