Jay Louis

Country Folk Revivalist

I write and perform foward-thinking rear-view-mirror-gazing music.

I rest my bones in Boston but my heart's in San Francisco and my mind's in Austin.

Music

Performances

I'm currently in the process of booking a brief tour on down to Austin, TX in mid-March. For the next month I'll be testin new words musics at some Boston open mics (Cantab in Central Sq on Monday nights) and house concerts.

I've played bars, clubs, DIY venues, houses, and more in these states...

• Massachusetts
• Connecticut
• North Carolina
• Maryland
• Texas
• Louisiana
• Mississippi
• New Mexico
• Arizona
• Oregon
• I've got nothing against other states but they may have something against me.

I've also played a bit outside our borders:

• Quebec
• Germany
• Ireland

Contact me about shows, things, and strings: jaylouisramble@gmail.com

I "run" Armadillo Tortilla and attempt to uncover American music mysteries.

Music I'm currently listening to:

• Dave and Phil Alvin - Common Ground (Songs of Big Bill Broonzy)
• John Hartford - Mark Twang
• Merle Travis - Folk Songs of the Hills
• Peter Rowan - Selftitled
