Washboard Pete & Lennon Ruve will perform a selection of classic covers at Joe Joe Jims, showcasing their unique style. The duo, comprising drummer Pete Hammond and singer-guitarist Lennon Ruve, is known for their engaging performances that span genres from The Beatles to blues. The event is scheduled for 22 November 2026.
On Sunday 22nd November we're looking forward to welcoming back duo Washboard Pete & Lennon Ruve to the JJJ stage for an afternoon of classic covers delivered in their unique style!
The duo comprise drummer / percussionist Pete Hammond (probably best known at JJJ as long-time drummer in Steve Ajao Blues Giants) and singer / guitarist Lennon Ruve - aka Reuven Gershon (who is known at JJJ for playing the role of John Lennon in the great tribute band Love the Beatles) - and they will be delivering an afternoon of their favourite covers from The Beatles to Blues ... and beyond!
The duo have already entertained us at JJJ and we guarantee you'll have a great time singing along, dancing to, and enjoying the music and and antics of the boys: keep an eye out during the gig for the wandering washboard minstrel that is Pete :-)
