This is another fun toon which I hope will get you boppin a bit. It's some tongue in cheek rock n roll / cowpunk relationship counselling from legendary Aussie band the Beasts of Bourbon. Written by guitarist Kim Salmon.

I used my new parlour guitar to play this one. I was quite happy with the jangly chords which I think really suit the tune.

Something To Lean On (by the Beasts of Bourbon)

[There's a knock at the door]
[We answer it] Hello
[You say] Hello, I've come to hear some music
[We say] Great, come in you're at the right place, we've only released eleven songs so far, but we've got some more on the way. Turn up your hi-fi to eleven and have a listen to what we've got.
[We then say] If you like our songs, please follow us, repost and like them.
[You say] OK, I might do that, stop talking and let me have a listen.

@JTSunrise was born in Chicago, IL (the City of Blues) in 1968. JT grew up on a rural horse farm at Cuba Township near Fox River Grove, along the C&NW tracks, about an hour by train outside the city. Summer nights before the internet were for sleeping outside and watching stars, singing and playing guitar to his girlfriends, and hitching trains from his backyard. Anywhere JT went, he had his acoustic guitar slung around his back. JT also learned bass and banjo, and started a folk band in high school, playing house parties and school concerts and busking the commuter train station in Barrington, IL.

His teenage years took him around the world and to Tempe, AZ in 1987, (age 19) where he lived in the same building (and jammed often) with Spiral Stairs, a seminal guitarist who would later form the band Pavement. JT played acoustic sets at the legendary Sun Club. During this time, Robin Wilson of the Gin Blossoms (JT’s record store clerk friend) did his sound.

Seattle Music Era

Arriving in Seattle in 1992 with his Tempe barista girlfriend PJ (now wife), JT immersed himself in a city alive with music innovation. This was to become known as a time when Seattle bands reshaped the musical landscape. Amidst the scene, JTSunrise carved a niche and performed shows, blending busking music with the amplified Seattle sound, his Tempe-styled lyrical command, and the soul of Chicago street blues.

His performances became the background of Seattle’s music venues, from the intimate setting of **Art Bar** to the historic **OK Hotel**, where grunge legends made history. He captivated audiences at **Sit & Spin**, a venue combining a laundromat with a bar and live music, and found a true home at the **Lake Union Pub**, a legendary punk dive bar that embraced him as their own. Each chord, each lyric, carried the weight of personal experience.

Musical Influences and Style

JTSunrise draws from icons like Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, and Billy Bragg, alongside bands he admired in Tempe such as Gin Blossoms and Dead Hot Workshop. The bands at the Sun Club and Long Wongs in Tempe, AZ shaped his sound and approach. These influences, coupled with the music scene in 1990s Seattle (including Elise Sauer, Obe-Wan Kenobe, and everyone to ever perform at the Lake Union Pub), molded his blend of folk, punk, country blues, and acoustic pop.

Signature Songs and Contributions

Among his many contributions to the musical landscape, a few songs stand out:
- **"Saint James Infirmary"**: A haunting rendition of the classic ballad.
- **"Biscuit Roller Blues"**: A soulful, gritty track that showcases blues roots.
- **"Kevin Song"**: A heartfelt, melodic piece that resonates deeply with listeners.
- **"Cure For Pain"**: A Morphine song that explores themes of struggle and redemption.
- **"Mama Tried"**: A tribute to Merle Haggard, blending acoustic blues with heartfelt emotion.
- **"O Danny Boy"**: A timeless ballad, rendered with sincerity and grace.
- **"Blue Eyes Cryin' in the Rain"**: A fusion of folk and rock.

Prolific Output

JTSunrise has a substantial discography on SoundCloud, with over 200 tracks available. This includes a mix of original songs, raw covers, and collaborations with other artists. His music spans genres like folk, bluegrass and country blues, cowboy country, and 90s acoustic rock, reflecting his diverse influences.

Commitment to Seattle’s Artistic Community

JTSunrise’s influence extends beyond music. His commitment to authentic Seattle art is evident in his participation and support of local artists and musicians. As of 2024 he remains a licensed Pike Place Market busker, a role that allows him to share handmade music directly with the community any time, creating intimate, memorable experiences for locals and visitors.

Thanks everyone for support!

Solo acoustic rock n roll! 🎸🎤

I am a solo guitarist mainly playing acoustically. I am a rock n roller with folk, country, blues, jazz and classical influences. It could be summed up as cowpunk.

I have written two songs, Mexico and Solution, and have also written a number of instrumentals. As I don't have many songs of my own, I like to learn to play standards so I have developed a bit of a repertoire.

All originals are copyright. 

Thanks for listening and I hope you enjoy it! This is NG, bluesing out!

🕊️welcome...thank you for listening❤️

jay-did ("jaded"), possessed by the supreme overlord of the irreverent, the ill conceived, the unadvisable, the backward, the naive, the ignorant, the unintuitive, and all that is counter-popular, creates music that unites familiar sounds with ones that challenge and expand your brain. he/she/they offer you a gift that requires only your ears to receive, and seeks not worship, but simply to create happiness while helping feed the popular machine with new ideas.

WTF IS JAY-DID?

jay-did (pronounced "jaded" or /ˈdʒeɪ.dɪd/), the overlord of the counter-popular, has possessed the body of a mortal to carry out his plan  to disrupt the conformity in the universe. this benevolent entity intends to do this through the power of music, and passes new musical concepts directly through his mortal vessel to be shared with all of humanity. this simpleton of a performer is merely a pawn of the overlord, so cut him a little slack. he can't control any of this. he is being molded into a battle-hardened rock-and-roll soldier that will soon be ready to carry out my most sinister plans.

JAY-DID'S BACKSTORY

jad-did selected the five points and rino arts district neighborhoods of Denver, Colorado has the ideal place to focus his crusade against popular music. this wonderful place has proven to be fertile ground for emerging counter-pop artistry, and jay-did did intends to stay at the center of it all.

peace and love ♥️🕊️✌️from your friend, jay-did.
