Jones' influences range from classic 60's and 70's (Lou Reed, The Who, Neil Young, Alex Chilton) to alternative and punk rock (The Minutemen, Guided By Voices, The Replacements, Meat Puppets). 2021’s Serve Without Delay, a double live album of new songs plus demos, is his 8th album release, and his third with Dan Jones and The Squids. The record was woodshedded in lockdown and recorded live with Steve Tulipana (bass) and Matt Ronan (drums) at a socially-distanced recordBAR event on November 13, 2020. *** Jones was born in the suburbs of Kansas City but headed to the Pacific Northwest in his early 20’s, for about a twenty-year stay. From 1998 to 2013, Jones made indie albums and played along the I-5 corridor first as an americana troubadour, then leading the ever-changing Eugene-based Dan Jones and The Squids as well as The Golden Motors. As a prolific and hard-working regional solo artist and bandleader he supported local Eugene bills with Dinosaur Jr, fIREHOSE, Decemberists, Mike Watt, Steve Wynn, John Doe, and many others. When Jones first made the Pacific Northwest Americana scene, The Oregonian declared “any given verse of his songs packs more wit than a roomful of singer-songwriters could muster in a month of open mics.” The Eugene Weekly later called him the “bed-headed poet laureate of Eugene…[finding] beauty in the ordinary while coaxing poetry from things most writers leave in the garage...delivered in a Neil Young-esque holler or Lou Reed-style talk/song…” Returning to his hometown Kansas City area in 2013, Jones fired up The Squids again with junior high pal Tulipana (Season To Risk), and college pals Ronan and Alex Alexander, all stalwarts of the KC scene. They’ve become a mainstay on local stages and have shared bills Tav Falco, Pedaljets, The Big Iron, Cretin 66, and many more. Classic Cocktail Lounge and Casual Dining in the heart of the West Bottoms
