Pesky J. Nixon was formed in late 2005 by guitarist Ethan Scott Baird, keyboardist Jacob Bush and percussionist Dan Carp.
PJN has performed on such Massachusetts stages as the Paradise Lounge and Copperfield's in Boston, Club Passim in Cambridge, and the Pioneer Arts Center of Easthampton. They've also shared their stylings on the muddy hills (and midway) of the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival ('07, '08 & '09) in Hillsdale NY.
This year at Falcon Ridge, they were thrilled to have the opportunity to play alongside Abbie Gardner (of Red Molly), Anthony da Costa, Chris Thompson (of The Strangelings), Katie Graybeal and Brian Gundersdorf of We're About 9) and Bread and Bones.
PJN has both a live album and studio album in the works, so keep your eyes and ears peeled!

Hey there! Thanks again for being a Matthew Ebel friend! I wanted to reach out to all my Massachusetts friends to let you know about an upcoming show in nearby Providence, Rhode Island on Saturday, February 23, 2008.

It was great being just down the road from you guys at Falcon Ridge! It sure made for some great late-night sounds. Looking forward to our paths crossing again before too long. - Richard
Don't worry, I haven't forgotten. First thing I did when I got home was pick up the guitar and start trying to figure something out.
I've got this cool GDC thing goin' on, but EVERYTHING uses GDC so one minute it'll sound like "Let Her Cry" then the next it sounds like "Sweet Child O' Mine".
