The 1990s and 2000s saw another generation of jug band revival, which might be termed postmodern jug band movement. These bands range from traditionalists (covering 1920s and 1930s jazz and blues) to modernists (creating new music from jug band instrumentation and aesthetics).

Scenes of this nature have developed in New York City (centering on the Lower East Side and Red Hook, Brooklyn), Minneapolis, Chicago, Southern California (primarily the Los Angeles area), in the San Francisco Bay area, the Pacific Northwest, and Taipei, Taiwan.

[[The Muddy Basin Ramblers]], based in Taiwan, have composed over forty contemporary jug band songs across five albums since 2002.  Three of their albums were nominated for the [[Grammy Awards]] for their unique and creative design.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.taiwan-panorama.com/en/Articles/Details?Guid=3382175d-05de-4ba1-9292-c1604cddab52&CatId=8&postname=Jazz+Played+with+Freedom+in+Taiwan-Muddy+Basin+Ramblers+and+Tokyo+Chuo-Line|title=Jazz Played with Freedom in Taiwan Muddy Basin Ramblers and Tokyo Chuo-Line|website=Taiwan-panorama.com|access-date=July 27, 2024}}</ref><ref>https://pitchfork.com/news/grammy-nominations-2025-see-the-full-list-here/</ref>
