You’ll notice some changes to our site coming up as we have finally got our lineup solidified and close to complete (hear that fiddle players? Close but still missin’ somethin’) We got our pictures taken and they will be coming to the site soon as well as some new singles off of our upcoming album “HillBilly Bong Hits”, a collection of my favorite outlaw tunes to groove to done the way only Jack and the boys can do ‘em. Stay tuned for more!
