We had a great time last week, playing at both the Schooner Tavern and at the Minnesota Bluegrass and Old-Time Music Association's Homegrown Kickoff festival ! At the Schooner the dancers came out and at the festival the sun came out between downpours so a good time was had by all! We're already looking forward to more of both next year - stay tuned.
And as always, thank you to all of you who come out to our shows - you make this all possible!

Honky-Tonk Jump
Honky-Tonk Jump is coming out of hibernation on Friday March 16 at the Eagles 34 in South Minneapolis! We've got lots of new tunes, all your old favorites and the same old swingin' dance groove so get your dancing shoes on and get down there. Bring a partner or come find one - they'll be lots of people on the dance floor! All this for the price of a cup of coffee (ok, $10 so maybe coffee at Whole Foods...) and you can dance the night away!
We'll be looking for you - see you there!
Honky-Tonk Jump played its first dance at the Black Dog on Dec 22 2017! Thanks to everyone who came out - we had a blast! Tom stole the show with his new hat and fancy Scully suitcoat - he’s saving the black and white boots for another night...The music was swingin’, the dance floor was full and the food and drinks were great - what else could we wish for?
Happy holidays to everyone and see you in the New Year!

11/27/17 -Last night Honky-Tonk Jump returned to the Underground Music Cafe and had a blast again! The place was Standing Room Only but people found a little room to dance and the band had a blast, swingin' hard - everyone in the house had a good time! We had visitors from as far away as Hoyt, Kansas and a Texas native who made our night by telling us we could easily pass for a Texas swing band - yeah!
Big thanks to Don Olson and his wife LeeAnn - we invited them on short notice and they showed up! Don whipped into action and took lots of fantastic photos. This man is supporting the music community with his amazing photographic talents - BIG THANKS DON!
We hope you all had as much fun as we did and we look forward to seeing you Friday Dec 22 at the Black Dog Cafe in Lowertown, St Paul 8-11, $5 cover. We'll have the dance floor lots of you have been asking for so grab a partner or just come on down! Get your boots shined up and ready to two-step across the dance floor!
See you there,
Honky-Tonk Jump
