LIMITED EDITION AUTOGRAPHED VERSION
Joey (Joecephus) Killingsworth and Luke John are members of Joecephus and the George Jonestown Massacre. At the age of fifteen, Joey Killingsworth began his professional music career one night playing drums — backing up his father, the venerable rockabilly legend Bobby “Bo Jack” Killingsworth, Jumpin’ Gene Simmons (known for his novelty hit “Haunted House”) and Carrie Lewis (who was pregnant with Jerry Lee’s son at the time!). In the 90s, he began playing around Memphis regularly with the band Grendel Crane and at the turn of the century began working steadily with another rockabilly legend Eddie Bond. In the 2000s, he played guitar for a run of shows with Black Oak Arkansas and has also backed Shooter Jennings, JD Pinkus (Bu****le Surfers / Melvins) and 80s metal legend Thor.
Joey carries the lessons learned on the road with Bond to this day. Now as leader, guitarist and frontman for Joecephus and the George Jonestown Massacre, who have been referred to as “sounding like if Black Oak Arkansas grew up listening to Motorhead,” he keeps up a workman-like pace of touring and recording with the band. The band has made nine studio releases over the past sixteen years and can be heard regularly on Sirius XM Satellite Radio. The charity albums he has co-produced with Dik LeDoux have featured a stunning array of guest artists including Alice Cooper, Keith Morris, Kim Thayil, J. Mascis, Jello Biafra, Neil Fallon (Clutch), King Buzzo (Melvins), Mick Harvey and Warren Ellis (both of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds) and dozens of other recognizable names.
