Jungle Jim Smith

Get down to see Jungle Jim Smith Live at The Barwon Club on Sunday 23rd November for a Free Show in the BC Beergarden from 2pm - 5pm!

Armed with a 3-string cigar box guitar, a trusty 6-string, and a set of shed-built foot drums, Jungle Jim Smith is a one-man blues band with a rock’n’roll heart. His sound fuses dirty delta blues, swamp boogie, and rockabilly grit into a full-throttle performance that feels bigger than one man should ever be able to make.

Delivered with a raw croon and a back-porch swagger, Jungle Jim’s shows are a wild ride through originals packed with infectious hooks, foot-stomping rhythms, and riffs sharp enough to raise the dead. He’s earned a national following the old-fashioned way—gig by gig, crowd by crowd, until the whole room’s moving.

“Gritty and ballsy... Powerful grooves and rhythms... Lots of thought and energy went into this raw bundle of explosive music. Crank it up and blow the dust out of your speakers. You can thank me later.”
— Greg “Bluesdog” Szalony, Blues Blast Magazine, 2024
