Biography: Jupiter Coyote
In the course of their 17-year history, Jupiter Coyote has played over four thousand shows, traveled everywhere and done just about everything a touring band can do. The innovative group has independently sold over 275,000 CDs and tens of thousands of downloads. Throw in several hundred thousand bootlegs and you start to get the picture. Jupiter Coyote is a name brand and show no signs of fading, despite today's ever-changing, increasingly unpredictable music scene.
JC plays it the way they feel it -- with little regard as to where they fall between the cracks of what is considered trendy and fashionable. A band prolific in its writing, skilled in its musicianship and congenial in its nature, they remain the prototype of the truly independent band.
Tasteful and intense, the group's jams extend higher and the melodies -- combined with Mayes' guijo (banjo neck, Stratocaster body) and Felty's slide guitar -- create a revolutionary sound truly all their own. Lot's of vocal harmony and clever song writing set these guys apart from the rest of the banal, jam band pack. There is no band that sounds like Jupiter Coyote.
In essence, Jupiter Coyote is a musical stew with members adding their own individual flavor to the mix. The band is the new twist in southern rock and they deliver it with a relaxed, worldly view. Their sound has been labeled "Mountain Rock" -- a mixture of Southern Appalachian boogie, bluegrass-infused, funk-rock.
