BIO: Returning in 2006 with their sophomore release, STRANGELAND, Cellar Records recording artist, Court Jester, has musically matured and proved their boasts of being the premier Whiskey Rockers in the U.S. Coming quickly off the heels of Low Downs [Gina; Cellar Records 2003] successful run at commercial radio across the nation, Court Jester is returning to the scene with an all new album and an all new live line-up.
Strangeland truly marks the growth of the bands musicianship. Dan Boehne has now taken the reins and stepped up to the mic becoming the new voice of Court Jester, and has brought a new rawness to the band that seems to have rejuvenated the band. Accompanied by founding member, James Azrael on guitars; Producer, Todd Joos on bass; Bob the Birdman Brady on drums; and featuring special guest Dizzy Reed of Guns N Roses on piano and Hammond C2 Organ.
Focusing on their hard rock and blues roots with Strangeland, Court Jester really hits home with songs like Hollywood Girl, Aint Comin Back, and They Cant Catch Me. And songs like This Life really let Dans new vocal duties shine and also prove why Dizzy Reed is one of the top keyboardists in rock today. The epic love song, Destinys Dance, brings in a full string section and proves without a doubt that these guys have musically matured and will continue to surprise their fans. And the personal homage and cover of the heart-tearing Motorhead tune, 1916, sums up and closes the album leaving the listener in awe.
The excitement doesnt end with the music on the album either. Long time fan and friend of Court Jester, infamous comic book artist Tone Rodriguez (Conan, Simpsons Tree House of Horrors, Violent Messiahs) brought his pen to the table and designed the artwork for the new album cover. In addition, the coloring is done by DC Comics colorist, Wes Dzioba (Hawkman, Superman: Secret Files)
