BLOODY OL' MULE

KICKING YOUR TEETH IN SINCE 1976

About Me

BIO. . .BLOODY OL’ MULE was born into Oklahoma’s music scene in 2004 as a one-man-band drenched in traditional country, and blues with the smallest dose of madness, and grit. His influences include: Hank Williams Sr., Jr., and the 3rd, John Lee Hooker, Hasil Adkins, Charlie Feathers, R.L. Burnside, Son House, Slayer, Beaten Back To Pure and lots of real country, and blues, along with 1950’s rock'n'roll as well as good metal.Shilo Brown started playing music at the early age of 15, and has always chose to play by himself than in a band due to the fact of his rhythms being odd, and jagged, as well as the fact that trying to find people that are reliable.Bloody Ol’ Mule writes his own songs, and prefers to play his originals with all the grit, and horror that one could muster, producing enough original material to play a good, and healthy 3 hour set of his songs, with always more to come. Bloody Ol’ Mule’s sound combines elements of vintage rock'n'roll, blues, country, and good old foot stomping metal. Shilo Brown’s voice at times is gritty, and other times providing that high lonesome sound that cries out from the roots of Appalachia recollecting utter heartbreak and wanting, as well as pain, and a sense of power. Add a touch of rockabilly mixed with pure gritty blues rooted out of the south and you have Bloody Ol’ Mule.BLOODY OL' MULE is a one-man-band from Oklahoma whose influences are sunk deep into traditional country, and blues, and rooted out of sludgy backwoods dragging metal. He now resides on the land he was raised on in Grady County, Ok. other wise known as Hell's Fringe. Bloody Ol' Mule wants to play live shows.

Band Members: Solo act - One Man Band - Sometimes with various musicians.
Influences: Hello, I'm Bloody Ol' Mule, I play alot of country, rockabilly and blues, and have recently went full-time with the one-man-band gig, I play guitar with a bass drum that I've made out of an old piece of wood that I feed through a bass amp, also on occasion I have been known to bring live cats on stage, and duck tape them down so where their asses are in the air, making easier for me to give a good hard pull on their tails creating a certain screaching effect that tends to go real well over the bass beats, and heavy guitar rhythms that pound out of an acoustic guitar fed through distortion pedals etc.My influences: I like Jimmy Crack Corn & The Two Bit Dandies, Jack Knob & The Corn-holers, Acid King, Men of Porn, RL Burnside, Doc Slithers & The Snake Oil Salvation, El Whoro, John Lee Hooker, Slayer, Tom Waits, Hank Williams, Hasil Adkins, Pinhole Sunn (who are another local act), The Peckersnot Bandits (An all girl band), Jesco White The Dancing Outlaw, Jackalope Bill and The Two Bit Dandys, Devil's Antler, The Corn-Fed Mule Boys, The Jack Frost Nut Tuggers, Billy Jack Devil Face, Hank Williams Sr., Dale Watson, Wayne Hancock, Hank Williams III, Hasil Adkins, RL Burnside, Junior Kimbrough, Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash, The Louvin Brothers, Scott H.

Biram, Razorblade Kooch, and so on, and so forth, my influences are all over the map.I like to play music, play live shows, hunt, fish, I like back-roading, cuddling under a clear night sky with a bottle of the sweetest juice, and long walks through wooded areas.Anyhow, I hope this helps a tad.Take Care,Bloody Ol' Mule www.myspace.com/bloodyolmule
