Nomad Jones Live in Concert

About Us

Nomad Jones is a hot and happening Western Canadian bluegrass outfit equally comfortable ripping on rollicking classics or serenading on sultry ballads. Drawing from an extensive repertoire from traditional grass and beyond, Nomad Jones provides the full package with father-son harmonies and intriguing instrumentals.
Who We Are

The youngest member of the band, Nico Humby (Edmonton, AB) puts down a solid bottom end on the double bass while providing passionate vocals. Nicos bluegrass style has evolved through years of singing and playing various genres of music, from funk to folk and R&B to swing. He has toured with Jeff Scroggins & Colorado and the Greg Blake Band.

Also on the younger end of the spectrum, Miles Zurawell (Edmonton, AB) can and will draw pretty much every emotion out of your soul as he riffs and rolls along on the resonator guitar. He has toured with the Greg Blake Band and has accompanied many artists in the Edmonton music community.

Second-generation old-time fiddle champion and bluegrass fiddler, Byron Myhre (Edmonton, AB) adds flash, flare and fine fills to the outfit. A long-time member of the Canadian bluegrass band Jerusalem Ridge (along with fellow Nomad Jones member, Craig Korth), Byron toured western Canada and the Pacific Northwest extensively over a period of nearly 20 years. Byron operates Myhre's Music in Edmonton Alberta.

Providing the drive and direction for Nomad Jones is preeminent performer Craig Korth (Nelson, BC) on banjo. Craig brings a vast knowledge of the genre to the band with nearly 40 years experience taking the stage across North America. His abilities have allowed him to take the banjo well beyond bluegrass and he can be seen around the region rolling away in jazz and rock groups.

Rounding out the band is Bill Humby (Nanaimo, BC) singing his heart out on lead and harmony vocals and providing grooving guitar rhythm. Bill has a vast musical background that includes drumming in a lounge lizard band, performing in Gilbert and Sullivan operettas and appearing with his kids on "Un Air de Famille", a Radio Canada reality television show for singing families.
