new website, new everything.

we are very happy to show off our new website.  its as simple as she gets.  here you can find all the news, shows, photos, videos, and anything else we can think of that might be at all relevant in any way, boring or intriguing, to what we are all about…. which is rock n roll. that good ‘ol fashioned rock n roll.  pre MTV.  pre VH1.  back when rock n roll radio ruled your car stereo and your living room with a doo wop iron fist.  the reader must be aware that on this website, you will undoubtedly hear blasting horn sections, boogie woogie piano (the devil’s music!), southern twanged, blues soaked harmonicas, hand claps, songs about love, lust, dancing, drinking, and the pursuit of happiness.  we sure hope you like it.  please write us to say hi, especially if you want us to come to your town.  when we arent rolling down america’s broken highways, you can find us on the east side of nashville tennessee, kicking up some old country dust.

honky tonk yourself to death.

jacob and the band.

Albums

Volume One was made as simple as possible. Most of the songs were done in one take, one guitar, no fancy pants production or over dubs. The idea is to present the songs as honest and bare as we could, so that the songs in their most basic form come through. This EP is and will always be completely FREE, so please spread it about. thanks, Electric Western Records
