April Mae & The June Bugs play Americana under the influence of jump blues, swing and boogie with a dab of N'awlins for extra spice! Smoke and honey vocals, cigar box guitar, upright bass, banjo, mandolin, washboard servin' up high energy and deep vintage vibes is their specialty. Roots baby, roots!
Founded in 2010, April Mae and the June Bugs entertains crowds wherever they can plunge into the American roots music they love.
The trio travels around the country in a vintage school bus they refurbished and renamed, and has been converted to run on vegetable oil. The Boogie Bus sleeps three and has room for their many instruments and the supply of filtered vegetable oil, which they use as an alternate fuel. "Our aim is to be as green as possible," said Mae.
On their travels they've performed with many musicians including Pete Seeger, J.M. Van Eaton, Eric Frey of the Red Stick Ramblers, and New Orleans' Washboard Chaz. Supporting line ups with Imelda May, Theresa Anderson, Cyril Neville, Luke Winslow King, Gina Sicilia, Justin Johnson and Ben Prestage, among others.
After a live radio performance on WWOZ, The New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Station, DJ Hazel, The Delta Rambler observes, "They have a reverence for the old and a fresh new look to the future. a lot of fun!"
