Sloppy Joe

About Me

Since 1998 perennial coalescent of 4 members. Melodies, harmonies, and instrumentation blossoming from mid-autumn through early fall. Common throughout the upper mid-west from upper Michigan to Minnesota primarily in northern Wisconsin and south to Florida. Often found in disturbed soils near bluegrass or road-side ditches and taverns. Styles including but not limited to; country, bluegrass, neo-acoustic-electric-old-time, americana (whatever the hell that is), and, of course, jug-band. Members primarily hirsute. Instrument distribution orbicular and frequently changing on stage over the course of the evening. Showy clusters of original songs warranting the creation of the separate species; Daryljethro slopgrassicus (known commonly as Slopgrass, Slop, or Sloppy Joe). Used medicinally as a euphoric, purgative, and treatment for chorophobia.
