So here it is. The video clips came from a few different live shows. I suck at making films and this one drove me crazy. I did it more for the song than anything else. Hopefully the next one comes out better. If you dont like the video, just crank up the music and look away. Cheers!

Special thanks to Travis at Knight Recordings for the badass sound! Hopefully it comes correct once it uploads.

PS...I don't understand why this video doesn't show up right away when you search foilsom prison bluse punk cover, but this is just a cover song, we are not using this for profit.

  • Thanks! It's really fun to play too!

  • Word to the Elephant. The reason why we cover this song is because it's so much fun to play live. Johnny Cash always did it in his own amazing way.

  • Great...we lost a star...yes the video sucks, I'm sorry, but however you rate it, at least post a comment saying what you think about the song. Cheers!

  • I take it that Dropkick was an influence on ya'll?

  • Nice!

  • Dude - freaking awesome!

  • I'm an old school Punk from LA's early scene 30+ years ago, and an avid amplified Blues harmonica nut.......I know punk rock well and you guys sound pretty darn good. Much better than most all of these modern day lame brained bands that call themselves punk. You guys, in this song, remind me of me old mates "The Vandals" from Long Beach, CA. Have a listen to them with the original band and you'll hear the resemblance. Don't let anyone tell you how to play YOUR music from the heart.

  • wow... I'm just now finding out my cuz, Brooks, has a band...cool:) You guys sound great. Brooks, you get that talent from your dad. RIP Uncle Jay! Nobody could rock the house like he could.

  • fuking great performance - u should redo orange blossom

  • these guys need to re-do Orange Blossom as well - these guys are fuking geat - i love it

  • first time hearing punk rock and it sounds promissing

  • Love it. I'm headin' to iTunes hoping you're selling it there. Would love to hear you thrash up the Monkees "Stepping Stone"
