Audiences have been laughing with Kacey Jones for years. She's been laughed at outside the Nashville city limits by the likes of People Magazine, USA Today, Billboard, GAC and CMT Television, the nationally syndicated Bob and Tom radio show, and on National Public Radio as Garrison Keillor's guest on "A Prairie Home Companion."
With KACEY JONES there's a lot to laugh about.
Included among the many hats she wears is...a tiara. She is the Official Songstress of The Sweet Potato Queens and has performed in concert at the annual Sweet Potato Queens' Ball & Parade, in Jackson, MS, for the past eight years. The many songs Kacey has written for the SPQs have become legendary among that clan, including "Never Wear Panties to a Party," "Show Up Naked, Bring Beer," and "Well-Behaved Women Rarely Make History."


Her forthcoming new release, "Donald Trump's Hair," is the hilarious follow-up to her previous comedy album, "Nipples to the Wind." Scheduled for national release in May, 2009, "Donald Trump's Hair" contains fifteen tracks, including thirteen new songs written or co-written by Jones. The debut single, "I Wanna Be Up Front Like Dolly" will be featured as a free download in the April 2009 edition of Country Weekly Magazine. Kacey's newest creation is 'stacked' with clever appeal, establishing the vocal talent and comedy genius caught in the grooves.


In the hard work-a-day world of carving a national name as one of the brightest musical humorists to break through in recent years, Kacey Jones is used to breaking the mold. Singer, songwriter, musician, publisher and producer--all distinct descriptions that fit only one unique piece of this puzzle. When completely assembled, the one that emerges is one of a delightful, born and bred in the San Francisco Bay Area, madcap redhead who sees the world at large with laser perception and a funny tilt.


"I'm a singer-songwriter-musician first," says Jones, "I enjoy making people laugh in the tradition of musical humorists such as Mae West, Dan Hicks, Tom Lehrer, Roger Miller, and Sophie Tucker. I also enjoy a good ballad...that's why I recorded my tribute to Mickey Newbury." (Kacey Jones Sings Mickey Newbury - IGO Records 2006). Jone's interpretation of Newbury's beautiful, melancholy songs achieved critical worldwide acclaim. She even enlisted Newbury's close friend, Kris Kristofferson, to play a cameo role in her music video, "San Francisco Mabel Joy."


If it all seems off the wall, it's totally sane in the world of Kacey Jones. Hers was, after all, the brilliant mind that conceived one of Nashville's most unique and revered cult groups, the all-girl trio, "Ethel and The Shameless Hussies," who broke above the waves in the late 80's to mainstream nominations as "Comedy Act of the Year" on MCA Records. As lead singer and lead comedy writer, Kacey put the Shameless Hussies on America's national radar.


In 1998 Kacey signed with Curb Records and recorded one of the few original music with comedy albums ever released by a female comedic artist in Nashville. "Men Are Some of My Favorite People," considered a classic by collectors, yielded two music videos, "1-900-Bubba" and "I Hate Your Lousy, Rotten, Stinkin' Guts But, I'm Not Bitter."


Further proving that her talents could produce more than just a few good laughs, Kacey entered the studio with legendary cult artist, Kinky Friedman, only to emerge as the producer of his critically acclaimed project, "Pearls in the Snow." Featuring Willie Nelson, Dwight Yoakam, Tom Waits, Lyle Lovett, Delbert McClinton and others, the album reached the top spot on the Americana radio chart in 1999. In 2000 Kacey and Delbert recorded a duet titled, "You're The Reason Our Kids are Ugly." The single stayed at the top of the European country chart for nine weeks.


Movies were next to fall under her spell. Kacey contributed three original songs to the soundtrack of the multi-award-winning cult film, "Sordid Lives" starring Beau Bridges, Olivia Newton-John, Delta Burke, and Leslie Jordan. "Sordid Lives, The Series" on the LOGO Network, also features several of Kacey's original songs, including "I Could Get Over Him if I Could Get Under You" which is included on the new "Sordid Lives, The Series" TV soundtrack (available at i-Tunes).p>
What's next on her agenda? Heads-up, Donald Trump, you're at the top of Kacey's list! For upcoming tour dates, check the "Calendar" page of her website at www.KaceyJones.com To book Kacey at your venue, corporate event, or house concert, call toll-free: 1-877-999-9975 or email info@igorecords.com.

Hi Kacey,
Thanks for the add! We have mutual friends with Jill and Kyle. Had dinner with them the last time they were in Dallas. Split time between Dallas and Nashville, where I grew up. Would love to meet you, if possible, at your convenience next time I'm over there. Have all your CDs. Keep those laughs and great music coming.

Nobody in the world is like you! Most of them others are probably trying to imitate your musical style, your sense of humor, and your practical down-to-earth way of looking at reality. "Kacey Jones" is an enigma!
