DJ FROM THE 90S-
Swamp music from the plains of the deep north of the Isle of Man. All the way from Jurby. The home of the cabbage! The only band from the Mountains of Jurby. Occaisionally performing as a nine/ten piece band (inc.Brass), the band members are all from the north of the Island. The name 'Jurby Mountain Daredevils' was chosen to reflect this. It also gives an opportunity for smart alecs to point out that there are in fact no mountains in Jurby.
The band play simple music deliberatley to allow for the addition of guest musicians without the need for rehearsals.

It began in a swamp. Well, in a Tipi in a swamp, with a telephone attached to an ironbark gum. This is not fiction. This is the cold smoking truth. The bearded man was born. Many years passed to the sounds of Tom Waits, AC/DC, Tim Buckley, The Black Keys, Pantera and Springsteen. The young bearded man moved to a bigger swamp filled with smoke and bars and girls. A land of knife fights and drug dens and muscle cars and rock’n’roll. He lost his way and began to despair. Half drowned in Jack Daniels he prowled his new domain.
