J. Isaiah Evans & The Boss Tweed

Fueled by American rock & roll and Texan country-boogie, J. Isaiah Evans & The Boss Tweed
play revved-up roots music for garages, roadhouses, and juke joints. It's an old-school sound for
the modern age, performed by an organ trio with overdriven amps and plenty of reverence for
the trailblazers who came before them. Inspired by acts like Bo Diddley, Chuck Berry, and Ike
Turner, Evans teamed up with keyboardist Matthew Vasquez and drummer Spud Crowley to
form The Boss Tweed after fronting another critically-acclaimed act, The 40 Acre Mule, for
nearly a decade. The band's debut album, Americana Radio, finds the guys re-imagining the
organ trio — an ensemble traditionally seen in jazz music — as a vehicle for lean, mean rock &
roll, delivering tracks like "Let's Rock" and "A Thing For You" with a mix of groove, grit, and
Hammond B-3. Recorded to analog tape during two days of live-in-the-studio sessions,
Americana Radio introduces a power trio rooted in the 21st century and inspired by the best
parts of the past, breathing new life into familiar sounds along the way.
