Nomad Jones Band

A combination of youth and beauty, veterans and virtuosos, Nomad Jones banded together to chase the bluegrass bug. Their diverse backgrounds only bolster the band's ability. The youngest member of the band, Nico Humby (Edmonton) puts down a solid bottom end on the double bass while providing passionate vocals. Nico is also involved in a number of other projects ranging from funk to folk. Also on the younger end of the spectrum, Miles Zurawell (Edmonton) can and will draw pretty much every emotion out of your soul as he riffs and rolls along on the resonator guitar. You might also see Miles doing a solid impression of Tony Rice on the flat top or flashing on the five. Providing the drive and direction for Nomad Jones is preeminent performer Craig Korth (Nelson) on banjo. Craig brings a vast knowledge of the genre to the band with over 30 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 (Victoria) singing his heart out on lead and harmony vocals and providing grooving guitar rhythm. Bill has a vast musical background from drumming in a lounge lizard band, to performing in Gilbert and Sullivan operettas to playing with The Real Humdingers, his family band with Nico and daughter Paula.
