Now... a little more about...ME! LOL!_________________Brian Lynn Jones is a country boy from Oklahoma. Singing since he could talk, music has always been an important part of Brian's life. He grew up listening to a vast array of music, with country being his family's favorite. A steady diet of George Jones, Tammy Wynette, Charlie Rich, Merle Haggard, Conway Twitty and Loretta Lynn, Tom T. Hall, Buck Owens, Johnny Cash, Porter Wagoner, Dolly Parton, Charlie Pride, David Allen Coe, and Glen Campbell as well as rock and pop artists, Bruce Springsteen, Cheap Trick, Kiss, The Pretenders, REO Speedwagon, The Who, and of course Elvis Presley amongst countless others, filled the airwaves in his family's home and cars.
Starting with the piano and trombone, a bass and guitar finally became the love of his life. You can feel his soul in his bass lines and in his music.
As a boy in Moore, Oklahoma, Brian played in numerous bands, often composing many of the original songs himself. By the age of 16, he was in the number one band in Oklahoma, as voted by JAM Magazine. The two years following brought the same accolades with his follow-up bands. Yearning for greener pastures, Brian moved to Southern California, where he has been entertaining ever since. Ever the performer, the year 2000 found Brian traveling the country with the Radio Disney Band, and the self penned 'Don't Come Back Cryin' To Me' on the popular daytime soap All My Children. Not too shabby!He is ever the free spirit, and always up for a good/wild time. He is neither Angel nor Devil, but wears his halo somewhere around his waist like a belt. He is a good man with a boy's sense of wonder and awe at the world and life around him. Taking it all in to create the music he does.The prolific writer and performer, Brian has released a much-awaited project, with his band "The Misfit Cowboys". Having written or co-written most of the tunes on the project, He terms as "Rock 'n' Tonk Country Music', it is a sure bet that this CD 'NOWHERE TO BE FOUND' will win the hearts of America.----------Jim Berault - fellow songwriter and friend__________________________WHAT IS ROCK 'n' TONK COUNTRY MUSIC?:It's rockin', honky-tonkin', finger pickin', chicken lickin', greasy electric guitar, bass a-pumpin', drums a-thumpin'. It's pedal steel with a bluesy feel, strummin' mandolin, sawin' fiddle, moanin' squeeze box. It's head boppin', foot stompin', drivin', dancin', smokin', drinkin', thinkin' of your girl (boy, husband, wife), home, family and friends. It's knee slappin', toe tappin', hand clappin' earth shakin', booty quakin', laughin', cryin' in your beer, not givin' a damn. It's black and white, wrong and right, day and night, outta-site. It's smooth and rough, soft and tough, things you love and other stuff....It's not perfect, but, close enough. It's livin', dyin', and always tryin', makin' love and satisfyin'. It's your first kiss, wedded bliss, your best friend's good-lookin' sis, and other things that are hard to resist. It's give and take, shimmy and shake, always real and never fake! It's tight jeans and boots, bolo ties and Nudie suits. It's short skirts and high heels, the way love makes you feel, a royal flush on your first deal. It's pretty eyes, little white lies, a lover's sighs. It's nice legs and a smile, class and style, a great feelin' that stays with you a while country music!!!..."at least to me, that's what it is!" - B.L.J.
