| The Grand Coulee Old Tyme Jug Band originated during some cold, stormy, Saturday nights in 1967 when John and Shirley Gorman, Joe and Edna Seeley, and Jim Argue would gather at Currie and Lin Seeley's for evenings of musical fun. Originally for their own enjoyment, they soon began to play for variety nights, dances, wedding receptions and Senior Citizen homes in and around Regina. In 1972 John and Shirley Gorman retired from the band and Laura Seitz (now Mrs. Jim Argue) joined the group playing piano and accordion. The fiddle that Currie plays originally belonged to his father who purchased it second hand in Toronto in the year 1900 and played at many country dances in the Grand Coulee area.
