Some information on the band, Throwdown Jones:

Throwdown Jones is one of the most popular, longest-running Rock N’ Roll Party Bands in the Carolinas. Hailing from Morganton, NC, and originally formed under the name ‘Acoustafix’ in 2007, the band continues to thrive today, performing for large outdoor festivals, bike rallies and now branching out all across the US. This is no garage band here, kids. These seasoned and talented musicians are on a mission to create music the way it was meant to be: live, loud, and with no apologies.

With a heavy emphasis on vocal harmonies, thick funk grooves and thumping electric numbers, Throwdown Jones pride themselves on twisting the average, boring, everyday songs into new, crowd-jumping show-stoppers, sure to keep the party kicking all the way to last call and beyond.

“We keep it fun. Plain and simple.” says Robb Pritchard, lead singer for the “Jones Gang” as they’re affectionately known by their fans. “We’re here to make sure the crowds have a good time… Everytime, and all the time.”

Covering virtually every genre of music from Journey, Foreigner, Scorpions to Kid Rock, AC/DC, and Run DMC, Throwdown Jones runs an impressive gamut of musical versatility. So much, that in 2007, the band had the honor of meeting and performing for former President Bill Clinton during a campaign stop in Morganton, where they entertained the crowds with Eagles classics and even a Def Leppard cover to lighten the heavy political tone of the rally.

Since then this rocketing locomotive has been steadily bouncing off the rails and the world of rock has taken notice. Sought out and sharing the stage with the likes of legendary acts such as Boston, Hinder, Creed, former front man of Journey Steve Augeri, and front man Bret Michaels of Poison and the Bret Michaels Band, just to name a few. Also armed with a debut single “Down” re-produced by Bret Michaels Band lead guitar player Pete Evick, these musicians show no signs of stopping.
