BAND OF THE MONTH

Welcome to the music of Joecephus and the George Jonestown Massacre. Blazing a trail out of Memphis, Tennessee, Joecephus and his always revolving band The George Jonestown Massacre are on a roll. Having been referred to as the link between Motorhead and Merle Haggard and and having served as opening acts for such diverse artists as Shooter Jennings, David Allan Coe, Jesco White, Southern Culture On The Skids, Jim Dickinson, Green Jelly, Torture King from Jim Rose Circus, Scott Biram, The Reverend Horton Heat, HR of the legendary Bad Brains and many more, Joecephus and company are ready for full auditory assault in any venue that can take it. Exhibiting a tireless work ethic, the band has played Honky-tonk venues as well as Punk/ Metal clubs throughout the southern states. Joecephus has created a unique style by mixing "outlaw" country sounds with rockabilly rhythms, jazz improv, reggae, rock, and old school punk blurring the boundaries of music.

There is a new band on the country scene and that band is Aimless Gun. They hail from Austin, Texas,a city already teeming with music. However, to call them just country is wrong. They incorporate indie, alt country rooted in rock and made their own. All this can be heard on their debut cd 'Burning Low'. Hear it and buy it! This is a band that by rights we should be hearing a lot more from.
