PEDJAM ENtertainment

Pedaler’s Jamboree 2024

First Round Of Line Up Announcements

Ha Ha Tonka

Coming straight out of the Ozarks in southern Missouri, Ha Ha Tonka specialize in wide open, effortless anthems that owe as much to high and lonesome Ozarks mountain music as straight up rock‘n’roll. Over their history, Ha Ha Tonka has recorded 5 critically acclaimed albums, toured the world, played Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits, appeared on late-night TV on CONAN as well as on Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations. Through it all, these Ozarks natives have made friends, found love, started families, and grown and matured together. During the pandemic, the band finished their 6th studio album, which is set for release later this year on Riptide Music. - www.hahatonkamusic.com

Aaron Kamm and the One Drops

Hailing from St. Louis, MO, Aaron Kamm and the One Drops merge flavors of Roots Reggae, Mississippi River Blues, Improv-laced Jams, and Soulful Vocals. With their high-energy performance and unique sound, Aaron Kamm and the One Drops are a must see.

Hooten Hallers

For the past sixteen years, The Hooten Hallers have been crisscrossing the country as inveterate road warriors, bringing their peculiar vision of Americana: a fiery, bluesy, rock and roll fever dream birthed in Missouri’s fertile musical heartland. They’ve put so many miles into the road that they’ve burned through multiple tour vans and left twisted metal and frayed rubber strewn across the road behind them. The Hooten Hallers are known for their incendiary live shows that must be experienced to be believed, taking the listener on a dynamic journey from explosively raucous blues to expressive three-part vocal harmonies to danceable grooves.

The enduring hope and tinges of madness of this power trio are driven by the infernal vocal growl and swirling electric and lap steel guitars of John Randall, the powerful drumming and falsetto howl of Andy Rehm, and the burning baritone and bass saxophone lines of Kellie Everett. The Hooten Hallers have always been musical colliders, smashing together blues, garage rock, country, punk, and a hint of jazz into a refreshingly unique sound. It’s Morphine meets ZZ Top mixed with a dash of George Thorogood and Tom Waits. But anyone who has seen this band live knows that this group is unlike anything they’ve experienced before. When The Hooten Hallers come to town, you know it’s gonna be a party!

THE SPOOKLIGHTS (formerly MK Ultra)

Banjos and synthesizers... Dulcimers and wubs... Strange flashing lights... Unexplained phenomena... The Spooklights (formerly MK Ultra) is a collaboration of Ben Miller and Pat Kay that is not what anyone would have expected from these two renowned torchbearers of Ozark mountain music tradition heretofore. It's certainly not what they expected when they traded keys to one another's bunker of busted toys and forlorn experiments during the lockdown of a global pandemic. From a pile of spare parts and fringe ideas, these industrious cobblers of homemade gear soldered a few choice wires between Electronic Music and their trademark "Ozark Stomp Grass" producing a jangle-stomp time-machine to vessel their most bizarre implements and soundscapes. In it, they have embarked on a journey exploring hillbilly music from a distant future. Hop on in, y'all. It’s only weird the first time.

Tanner Lee

A seasoned showman, songwriter and recording artist, from Boonville, Missouri, Tanner performs nationwide as a solo artist, collaborative songwriter and performer. With a passion for storytelling, Tanner writes from the heart. Gritty, real, passionate and sometimes painful. His voice resonates with the clear passion of a singer/songwriter and his music is wrapped in the influences of classic southern rock, a heart of Americana and a decent helping of Nashville country. His songs are the true stories of love, laughter, friendship, heartbreak and real life in the heartland.

Molly Healey String Project

A fan once lovingly stated that Molly brings the orchestra to the live rock show, and it’s a descriptor that has stuck over the years. As a longtime fiddle player for the Ozark Mountain Daredevils who morphed into a powerhouse experimental songwriter, Molly Healey began her solo career in 2015 after buying a simple looping pedal. She immediately found a passion for blending her strings and voice together into atmospheric and experimental orchestral folk songs, and her first compositions were featured on her debut solo album, Nightbirds. She has since recorded 3 more albums, each growing in intensity and instrumentation, and the most recent of which, Lotus, was released November 19th, 2022. She has grown from the stripped-down looping solo set, to a roster of original music and choice covers that she often performs with a full electric band. She plays a dazzling variety of instruments: cello, violin, guitar, and piano, all while experimenting with various other sounds looping in Ableton Live.

The 2022 release of Lotus is by far the most ambitious of her efforts. Influenced by artists such as Radiohead, Andrew Bird, Agnes Obel and more experimental cello-driven acts like Zoe Keating and Rasputina, all tracks are heavily laden with her lush string arrangements, unconventional use of the orchestral instruments, and infectious beats. The album features a choir and a full orchestra in parts, and even her daughter joins in on electric guitar for a track. She’s currently playing shows in support of the new album.

She has opened for Victor Wooten, Yonder Mountain String Band, The Ozark Mountain Daredevils, among many more, and has played sets at Burning Man, Roots N Blues Festival in Columbia, ReKinection Festival, and for the Missouri Contemporary Ballet. Her band members are Zach Harrison on electric guitar, Kyle Day on bass, and Danny Carroll on drums. Molly also continues to play violin for The Ozark Mountain Daredevils, The Lacewings, and The Kay Brothers. She frequently does session work for various bands across the state. Molly is also the co-organizer of Earth Day: The Festival, an annual music festival that raises funds for local environmental organizations. She is in the studio recording new music to be released in 2024.

Jackson Stokes

Stokes’ story starts with classic rock- his first concert was Lynyrd Skynyrd- and the good fortune of happenstance: his St Louis neighbor was Devon Allman, who encouraged Stokes early in his musical pursuits. Stokes developed into a prodigious, teenaged firebrand with a passion for the blues, pairing with another area wunderkind, Marquise Knox, and performing his first professional gigs.

From high school garage bands to an All-State jazz ensemble, Stokes expanded his musical palette. He attended Drury University in Springfield, Missouri, earning a degree in music therapy. In 2012, with his band, Delta Sol Revival, he issued an Allman-produced, five-song EP, Witness.

In 2017, Stokes joined the Devon Allman Band and, subsequently, the Devon Allman Project, of which he’s been a flagship member since 2018. In 2019, Stokes put the finishing touches on an inaugural solo LP; a lean and ambitious set of rock-and-soul, including a reimagined Talking Heads cover, and a depth of original material ranging in style and subjects. Guitar Player magazine praised Stokes’ effort, calling it, “a tour de force of soulful rhythm-and-blues guitar playing.”

Over his decade-and-a-half career, Stokes, in his own right, also has been a welcomed guest onstage, opening for or collaborating with a who’s who of artists such as Robert Cray, Warren Haynes, Marcus King, Lucas Nelson, Samantha Fish, Ivan Neville, Eric Krasno, Eric Gales, Robert Randolph, The Waiers, The Allman Betts Band, and Tonina.

The Cotton Mollies

The Cotton Mollies formed in Columbia in 2006 and quickly developed a reputation for raucous, genre-busting acoustic performances that spilled from open mic nights (RIP, The Blue Fugue) to local rock clubs to street corner busking sets. The group's songwriting arrangements and vocal harmonies endure as a uniquely regional expression of alternative folk and DIY spirit. The Cotton Mollies return to the stage for the band's first concert in over a decade with a little help from their old pals John Randall and Andy Rehm of the Hooten Hallers.

The January Lanterns

The January Lanterns is an American Indie-Folk-Pop band that formally started in 2017 by husband and wife duo, Andrew and Kristen Camp. The two dynamic performers have been singing, writing and recording together since they met in 2006. The high school sweethearts create a palette of beautiful, yet raw truth in their lyrics and have bitter sweet harmonies that coalesce to create warm folk chord progressions infused with pop productions. Calling Missouri home, the duo’s music caters to anyone who’s lived a life of ups and downs. After releasing their debut LP, For The Kids, When They’re Older, in 2022 the couple released three new singles, “the kid that wrecked it all”, “holding on for dear life”, and “Time Is Softer” in 2023. They are currently working on their second LP. - www.thejanuarylanterns.com

Rail Whiskey Benders

The Stoplight Flyers

Drawing on their deep Midwestern roots and a shared passion for Americana songwriting, The Stoplight Flyers play original “authentic folk and country played with a rock ‘n’ roll heart, taking rare forks in the road to create memorable melodies; recommended if you dig artists such as Alejandro Escovedo, Son Volt and the quieter side of Old Crow Medicine Show.” (Aarik Danielsen - Columbia Daily Tribune)
