Music by Bumper Jacksons.

Want a great way to spend a leisurely Sunday afternoon? How about joining your neighbors for some good music at Veterans Park, right in front of South Side School. All shows begin at 3 p.m., and usually last two hours, depending on weather. Bring a blanket or lawn chair and enjoy! Admission is free. Donations for the musicians will be appreciated.

Bumper Jacksons are a big, fat party. Hot and sweet, their early jazz and country repertoire paints America's story from New Orleans' brothels to Appalachian hollers.  Unafraid to scrap together new sounds from forgotten 78's, the Bumper Jacksons boldly and elegantly balance paying homage to the traditions while fashioning their own unique, DIY style.  Recognized as DC’s “Best Traditional Folk Band” at the Washington Area Music Awards this past year, the Bumper Jacksons are ready to pounce onto the national scene.   Despite their young career, Bumper Jacksons have positioned themselves squarely at the helm of the young roots music scene in DC, pioneering a new, fresh take on American music, and all the while throwing one hell of a party.
