Rev Jones

“Rev Jones has infused some of the biggest names in hard rock with his incredible energy & musicality.” BassPlayer.com For more than three decades, Rev Jones has been one of the most unique & sought-after bassists/vocalists in hard rock. And for his legions of fans worldwide, "Bakwash" is his riff-blasting, face-melting, long-awaited solo debut album. Since first picking up a bass guitar in 1985 – and utilizing what BassPlayer.com calls “an array of techniques, both conventional & otherwise” – this native son of Oklahoma’s Tornado Alley has recorded & toured with headliners that include Steelheart, Mountain, Michael Schenker Group, Fuel, Leslie West, Paul Gilbert (of Mr. Big), and George Lynch, as well as top indie shredders like Blasted To Static, Texas Hippie Coalition, Kottak, Forte, Gundriver, and Black Symphony. Known for his distinctive two-handed tapping style and over-the-neck fingering technique – as well as his on-stage madman performance style – Jones has also worked with Grammy winning producers Mike ‘Metal’ Goldberg (Johnny Winter) and Jim Gaines (Santana, Stevie Ray Vaughn), and produced the popular instructional video Rev Jones Bass Line. When Rev is not recording/performing as a bass player, he tours with George Thorogood & The Destroyers as Thorogood’s exclusive guitar tech. Rev also plays off- stage rhythm guitar on several of the band’s songs. “Rev Jones is Geddy Lee cranked to +11. BAKWASH is as close to perfection as you can get!” Metal-Temple.com
