The Jarvis Jenkins Band (JJB) was formed over 15 years ago in the heat of South Florida. The name “Jarvis Jenkins” was inspired by the magic and inspiration of an old bluesman who Stu (founder and guitarist of JJB) had the opportunity to spend time with to learn the soulful ways of slide guitar from a true master who had the mojo hand. Jarvis Jenkins Band has since made Asheville, NC it’s mountain home where they have quickly become the tightest and most atomic incarnation of this band to date.
