Join my e-mail list for monthly updates and performance reminders:.. ............ Southpaw Jones treads lightly on the thin ice of irreverent honesty. Being left-handed, he naturally turns his guitar upside-down to make playing more comfortable. Being a creative little brother, he naturally turns the world upside-down to make his audience squirm with delight. Southpaw has plied his trade in Houston, Nashville, and Los Angeles, but he now calls Austin home, performing each Thursday at Flipnotics @ the Triangle and reaching out to find those open-minded folks who thirst for singable melodies and one-of-a-kind lyrics... .......... .. .. Southpaw has had the honor of opening shows for Eliza Gilkyson, Dan Bern, Slaid Cleaves, James McMurtry, Terri Hendrix, and Lisa Loeb, performing in legendary venues from coast to coast. He has played 5 instruments in 17 states during the past 10 years, but who's counting? ...... ............ While most comfortable in front of an intimate crowd of committed listeners, Southpaw is at home on stages big and small. In a world of men with guitars he stands out, singing about The Cruelty of Teenage Girls, The Last Remaining Beatle, White Boy Blues, Moon Whores, and the theory that girls with amnesia are Hot (So Hot). He makes listeners laugh, cry, and think, often within a single song...

    SPAMED! Can you ever forgive me? If so, please vote for me! I am in Round Two of The TRCoA Unsigned Artist Competition. Help me get to Round Three by clicking my face and voting for me! If I’m in the top 4 I get to play a showcase for record executives and could win 100 free hours in the studio. If I were selected, it would really help me rock some faces off, please take a second and vote. Thanks! -Ted Hadji
