Silver Beam Music - The Schticklers

The Schticklers

Iconic veterans of all-star Jug, Swing, and Jewish bands, The Schticklers burst on the scene with rare vigor, virtuoso musicianship and timely schtick to win the 2010 Championship Battle of the Jug Bands, as well as the main stage opening slot of the 2011 Chicago Folk and Roots Festival.

The accomplished musicians that make up The Schticklers are Barb Silverman, lively vocalist of the Teflons and the legendary Laketown Buskers, Jon Spiegel, slide guitar player extraordinaire, Stuart Rosenberg, former host of Radio Gumbo, Joel Frankel, award winning children's artist, and washtub bass guru Bob Stelnicki

They combine their talents on dynamic fiddle and dobro, swing and sock guitar, washtub and washboard, five-part harmony, clogging, and the playful warmth of Jewish humor. Let the Schticklers warm your ears and your heart too and make you feel a little more Jewish.
