A dynamic, six-piece, multi-genre Jam band from Los Angeles, Mother Jones, one of LA Music Awards recipients for "Jam Band Artist of the Year", has assembled a powerhouse of some of the West Coast’s finest musicians and vocalists featuring outstanding original music. Mother Jones was founded by band leader and multi-instrumentalist Son Vo- the "Mekong Delta Bluesman" and original Mother Jones guitarist, Tony DiPiano, over 8 years ago. They have released two strong, well-received albums and have been consistently touring and performing, headlining venues and festivals throughout California and neighboring states.
The band is currently working on their 3rd album- due out the summer of '09. Their first two albums, "Life Is Illusion" and "UNION" continue to receive airplay at stations throughout the US and Europe with "UNION" holding steady in the top 20 for several months in early 2007 on the Jam Radio Chart at Jambands.com.
