rampaging guitar, together with headlong accompaniment by Rhythm guitar
picker Chewy Clark, upright bassist Kyle Curtis, and drummer
Mark Santoro make for fast-paced and nitro-fueled music that cuts
full-on Hellbilly with western voicings, countryish bopping and
fireball psych storming.

Jack
Coray "I'm just an old Punkabilly"
I started playing violin when I was around six
years old. I dropped it quick when I saw my grandpa and my uncle playing the
guitar. My grandpa played a 1956 Gretsch Nashville and boy he could pick
some really great Chet Atkins and Hank Williams songs. I begged my folks for
a guitar and one day my Dad came home from work with a pawnshop special in
his hand. My uncle taught me how to play Chuck Berry type Rock and Roll
rhythms. My Mom signed me up to take lessons from the local music store
and at my school. The school band teacher was doing this guitar class, so I
took the class. It was ridicules. There was like forty kids all playing
acoustic guitars at once. The teacher had a cheap Les Paul knock off. One
day he stepped out for a smoke so I snuck down and started playing his
electric guitar. I think I played "More than a feeling" by Boston.
All the kids swarmed around me with their jaws on the floor as I did the
solo. The teacher walked in, his face red with anger, and said "Why
don't you teach the damn class!". Needless to say I liked that
attention and I was hooked. I joined my first band and played my first
gig when I was twelve years old. That was a cover band, and it's the only
cover band I’ve ever been in. Since then I've played in a handful of
original acts ranging from Punk to Rockabilly. I've
played gigs with a lot of known Punk bands like NOFX, The Circle Jerks, Bad
Brains, The Decendents/All, and a bunch of other bands that I can't remember. I
toured in 1988 with my punk band "Burial Benefits". We had a
great time playing shows up and down the west coast. After BB broke up I
moved to
San Francisco (1989) to start a new band. After kicking around the Bay area
for a year and a half I decided to move back to my home town. In Salt Lake
City I started a band with my gal SuzyQ called Nauvoo. We played a lot of
gigs including opening up for Peter Murphy (Bauhaus front man)
in place of Nine Inch Nails. That was around 1990. I got serious about writing in
the 90's and haven't stopped. I say I'm just an old Punkabilly because my
friends back in Utah used to call me "Rockabilly" due to my
haircut. I had Rockabilly
style, drove a 56 Chevy and played punk rock music hence a Punkabilly!
