ABOUT

We're a fast-paced, energetic, established band with a punk/Americana/old-time/bluegrass/circus sound and a Carny-game-filled live show. Black suits are a must! Loving Halloween is a must! Black Jake is the benevolent dictator/singer/songwriter of the band, and the Carnies are his back up band. Looking for professional hired guns without a million other commitments who can show up to practices and gigs, play skillfully, have great stage presence, be energetic but self-controlled, and not be pains in the ass! We've got a good reputation for well-paying gigs, and I'd like to keep it that way. Contact us via (search for our band name, you'll find it), or our website: blackjakeandthecarnies dot com
