Founding members adopted a credo
to “explore the outer realm of traditional
blues” by focusing on unusual seldom heard treasures. Blues songs that originated in the 30’s on through the 70’s are fast faced, slow and powerful, and always soulful; JellyBone nails it. With that foundation, the band mixed in energetic contempory music from recent blues and rock arists. This mix gets audiences engaged and asking for more.
plays updated takes of traditional
energetic blues tunes from artists
like Kenny Wayne Shepherd, ZZ Top, Jimi Hendrix, Sonny Boy Williamson, Backdoor Slam, Tom Petty, John Hiatt, Los Lonely Boys, and Howlin’ Wolf to name a few.
"If you like the originals, you'll love Jellybone's flavor.""
