The Struts Life 10: Backstage in Devizes - Stories from Jed’s Youth
Manage episode 433658358 series 2601091
This week, we’re taking a detour from the typical tales of rock ‘n’ roll life to dive into Jed’s roots. Contrary to popular belief, Jed isn’t from Bath—Google got it wrong! He’s actually from the quaint market town of Devizes. Nestled just outside of Bath, Devizes is rich with history, built around the magnificent Devizes Castle. It’s a place where merchants once peddled their wares to castle-goers, and today, the town still hosts a bustling farmer’s market.
Jed paints a vivid picture of Devizes, highlighting its vibrant arts community and unique events, like the annual confetti battle—a quirky tradition where cannons blast confetti into the air. This picturesque town, though small, holds a special place in Jed’s heart. Despite its modest size of about 16,000 people, Devizes boasts a robust cultural scene, including a two-week arts festival that kicks off with the confetti battle. Jed’s memories from his hometown, combined with his early days in Bath, reveal a charming, idyllic upbringing that contrasts beautifully with his high-energy life on tour.
Stay tuned as we continue our hometown tour with the rest of The Struts!
