For those of you in the Washington, D.C. area, you should know that I’m only doing two more shows in D.C. before I move to Austin, Texas. Get it while the getting’s good, y’all.
Press:
www.UkuleleHunt.com: “The musicianship on it is fantastic. But they’re obviously laid-back and enjoying making music together. It’s my favourite record of the year so far. Yes, it’s better than Blood Bank. Yes, it’s better than Horehound. Yes, it’s even better than Brooke Hogan’s The Redemption.”
The Contrarian Media: “Wonderful! Old-timey Americana with uke. Lovely, honest, authentic. A pleasant surprise.”
DC Music Seen: “Her songs are about all the things you would expect from a girl who’s been referred to as “Mustang” for the majority of her life. She sings about men, rusty trucks, the country, love, desire and heartbreak.”
Ukulele Player Magazine: “Miss Jess is an energetic performer. If you don’t know her you want to spend some time checking out her MySpace page and watching her performance videos. Jess is also known as “Mustang” and after watching the videos, you’ll know why. I’ll just say this, she has the spirit of a wild horse and she can steal the heart of any cowboy when she sings him a song.”

Jammin’ at Jackson’s
Announcing the release of the five-song EP, “Jammin’ at Jackson’s”, recorded in three hours on the evening of March 30th, 2009. I sat down with four of my fellow musicians, circled around a single microphone in a tall room in South Austin and we knocked out all the songs in less than three takes each. None of the guys had played these tunes together before, but you can’t tell that from the recording. We did it just like they did back in the 1930s and 40s, a group of players in somebody’s living room, strumming up a storm. It’s raw. And I sure hope you like it. It’s available for purchase (disc or download) at CDBaby.
