On this episode of In Conversation with Tourists, I meet The Traveling Janes, an international band performing at the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe. With members from the U.S., France, and Scotland, they come together as a colective, blending diverse influences into what they call “dirty blues, wild vintage jazz and folk music.” We talk about their musical journeys, how they navigate the world while collaborating across borders and what the Fringe means to them as performers. From the thrill of impromptu street performances to the opportunities of playing for a global audience, this conversation explores the intersections of music, travel and the vibrant energy of one of the world’s most iconic festivals.
