Having an unprecedented musical birth in Minneapolis, Minnesota, P.B. & The Jam, in its genesis stages, was comprised of a simple idea: creation & originality. From seemingly out of nowhere, assembled a cast of locally-renowned musicians who would make a pact with one another to forthwith expand musical horizons without regard for aural capacities. KEVIN GASTONGUAY, keyboardist & Dr. Seuss of musical masterpieces, brings insanely intricate melodies & blazing piano lines coupled with guitarist TRENT BAARSPUL's uncanny ability to seemingly pick up on each individual phrase & translate it into a separate universe. JAY AUGSPURGER, & bass thunder of CHRISTOPHER HUNNICUTT lay the groundwork, but more importantly, are never apt to leave you standing without vibrating. And, from the skies rains the boisterous brass section of saxophonist, JOE TIERNEY, and trumpeter, STEN JOHNSON, but fluttering not far behind from a distant cloud is DJ NIMO "THA HOOLIGAN," the DJ host, with certainly the very most, on the one's & two's, gives you that shiver in your bones that won't leave without a fond farewell. P.B. & The Jam is a raucously great time & solemnly swears to, like Dairy Queen, always treat you right. 

The last two years have been a building process for P.B. & The Jam all coming to a fulcrum point at the release of their debut album, "Lipofunktion." Bunker's Music Bar & Grill had graciously offered their establishment to house the event on May 5th, 2011. Word of mouth spoke for itself, as did the competency of music, with musicians, appreciators & aficionados alike amassing groups of fanatics preaching the proverbial gospel of the group from coast to coast. Then, LESS than one year later, on April 7th, 2012, the boys released their sophomore effort, "Pocket Protectors," at The Whiskey Junction in Minneapolis to a virtually sold out, eagerly anticipating crowd of people. Their shows are unforgettable, musical prowess unmatched, and capacity to bring out the fun in everyone unparalleled.
