My current obsessions include: Robert Downey Jr., the 1920s, Vince Young, Longhorn football, music, and iced coffee from Frank's Market.

Music
I play rhythm guitar and sing in a band called The Moonlighters. Our music is a blend of 1920's jazz with Hawaiian and Western swing. We sound kind of like if the Boswell Sisters were accompanied by Benny Nawahi and played songs that the likes of Bob Wills, Casey Bill Weldon, Bix Beiderbecke and Bessie Smith would have recorded. (If you got all those references you're pretty cool.) We play vintage sounding originals and covers of 1920's and 30's songs. Check out our website at ..www.blissblood.com/moon.html

"Ticklin' The Strings" by Sweet Hollywaiians
Amazing Japanese hot string band playing 1920's, 30's, 40's style hawaiian, swing, calypso, blues, italian music and originals,featuring vintage instruments.3 songs with Robert Armstrong and Tony Marcus(from Robert Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders)
"The Sweet Hollywaiians have probably the best feel for this 20's music of any string band working today. They manage the rare feat of sounding relaxed even when their playing is hot, are top notch musicians with tasteful arrangements and a full, rich, warm sound.Plus, they have a nice gamut of tunes, from King Nawahi to Giovanni Vicari to Bobby Leecan. See them live, if you can, for an unforgettable experience. If you can't, buy their Cds!" ~ Terry Zwigoff

Please check out our new comedic “vampire bankers” music video. The guy who directed this also directed Madonna’s first music vid. We think it’s pretty funny. It’s available as a free mp3 download on http://www.ukejackson.com
