"Though The Jungle Rockers hail from Ohio, they've managed to carve out a definitive spot in the Austin music scene somewhere between the familiar blue notes and twelve bar structures of Diddley-blues and the three chord thrash of bands like The Clash and The Ramones. Filling dance halls, garages, and The Continental Club with anxious fans ready to shimmy, shake and strut isn't tough for these guys -- and their devotion to rock 'n roll comes across in each and every performance. Coming around to their current sound rose out of a general frustration with the indie music scene and its sometimes icky leaning towards industry professionalism that left the Rockers with a bad taste in their mouth. This propensity to shake off the current scene ostensibly came as no surprise to those listening to their sound: their influences come from beyond records that surfaced two (or even twenty) years ago. Mixing this affection for songs written in the 50's and 60's with elements of swing, rock, pop and jazz make the Jungle Rockers' sound both unique and accessible.
