Audio Moonshine

 

   

 

Hello-----Audio moonshine is a rock band based out of the land of "Spud-Rock." Here in Boise we have some great music, great people, and the greatest football team. Anyway, my name is Jake and my drummer's name is Chad. Before the moonshine years, we played in a band called Crash 4 for about 9 years. During that time we played close to 500 shows, and shared the stage with artists such as Collective Soul, Built to Spill, Leftover Salmon, Calobo, Sugarland, Roger Clyne & the Peacemakers, Phantom Planet, Ben Lee, moe, REO speedwagon, Young Dubliners, Clumsy Lovers, and Korby Lenker, to name a few. We even got to play at the South-by-Southwest Festival in Austin, TX. It was a blast, and we had great fun and made great friends. But like all good things, it came to an end. Now we've taken our taste for the rock & roll side of the biz and created Audio Moonshine. We are in the studio right now trying to finish a record that has been in progress for about 3 years, and I can't wait for everyone to hear it. I've decided to take an approach that involves many musicians I've gotten to know over my 14 years of playing music. About half the songs will feature some of my Crash Four bandmates (Kelly Martin, Rebecca Gourley) doing vocals, guitar and violin. I also have additional musicians like Rebecca Scott, Steve Fulton, Jason Roark, Dave Andrews, Larry Kiser, Dan Costello, Christine Thomas & Stephen "the Fritz" Mathie. I'm hoping to create something diverse and unique. That being said, I really have a hard time putting a "genre" on these tunes. Because I listen to and respect so many different kinds of music, I hope that's reflected in ours....
