Thunderpants Johnson's Hillbilly Orchestra
Thunderpants Johnson's Hillbilly Orchestra is a
unique liberation of a lost style of music. Together
for 5 years now (and friends for decades), TPJHO
fuses ragtime, blues, folk, country, bluegrass and
rock & roll to produce the traditional jug band
sound with a knee-slapping twist to produce a truly
original experience. Thunderpants Johnson's
Hillbilly Orchestra shows turn a banjo, mandolin, 2
acoustic guitars, harmonica, washboard, washtub and
of course an old moonshine jug into a magical burst
of beer swigging, foot stomping hell of a good time.
Their new EP will be available on their website
soon.

B for Brontosaurus
B for Brontosaurus is a
pop-rock band based in Somerville. It's three
members - Abe, Ben, and Jo - play drums, guitars,
and bass+keyboards, in that order and every body
sings - including the audience. Known for their
sing-a-longs, they'll host a Fluff Jingle
sing-a-long at the festival and premiere their very
own original Fluff-inspired song.
B for Brontosaurus hope to
improve your life with their whimsical yet
self-conscious pop compositions, performed with a
verve and love of life that can only mean one thing:
they are in a band! You can order their EP or their
record (Yes! A record!) off
their website.
