NOTABLE QUOTES ABOUT JON “Jon's record is country music at its best. His classic songwriting and honest vocals transport you to your favorite honky tonk no matter where you press "play". Jon's star is only going to get brighter, and Warner Music Nashville is excited to be part of that ride!” – Cris Lacy, VP of A&R, Warner Music Nashville "While Jon Wolfe’s latest album is steeped in the kind of neo-classicism that has guided every George Strait record since the mid 1980s, It All Happened in a Honky Tonk is like a fine shot of single malt scotch whiskey. It goes down easy and smooth but the notes of it linger with you long after you’ve finished it."- Mike Bjorke, Roughstock “Jon is as traditional as his cowboy hat and jeans. I went to a showcase for him. Jon proved true country songs roll off his tongue easy and that he's as comfortable in front of a crowd as a pair of well-worn boots." - Larry Holden, Country Weekly “Jon’s the Real Deal. Sings from the heart, lives the life, and walks the walk.

On their debut album for Saustex, they recall the glory days of Captain Beefheart & Tne Magic Band and bring whiffs of CHURCHWOOD Jon Spencer to the mix - blues music that's adventurous innovative, wild, wooly and stirring that comes down from deep within the musical delta of that hipster realm known as Bohemia via the garage. The band reunites guitarist Bill Anderson (known for his six-string mastery and versatility with such diverse bands as Poison 13, The Horsies and The Meat Purveyors) and singer/lyricist Joe Doerr (with roots music cred from his 1980s stint in the leaenaary LeRoi Brothers), who led Ballad Shambles and Hand of Glory for three now prized albums on the Skydad label during their late '80s/early '90s run. Anderson and guitarist Billy Steve Korpi (Crack Pipes) raise an electrified fury behind Doerr's impassioned yelps and howls to create a rhythmically musical acid trip that takes the blues far into this new 21 st Century ife without leaving the style's raw Southern origins behind.
