This week, we\u2019re taking a detour from the typical tales of rock \u2018n\u2019 roll life to dive into Jed\u2019s roots. Contrary to popular belief, Jed isn\u2019t from Bath\u2014Google got it wrong! He\u2019s 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\u2019s a place where merchants once peddled their wares to castle-goers, and today, the town still hosts a bustling farmer\u2019s market.\nJed paints a vivid picture of Devizes, highlighting its vibrant arts community and unique events, like the annual confetti battle\u2014a quirky tradition where cannons blast confetti into the air. This picturesque town, though small, holds a special place in Jed\u2019s 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\u2019s 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.\nStay tuned as we continue our hometown tour with the rest of The Struts!\nLearn more about your ad choices.
