thanks for stopping by the jellywig mp3 site! we hope you enjoy
some of our music. the four of us have been playing together for about 5 years
and actually new each other in college at uc irvine but didn't hookup until
after we all graduated - yes we all actually graduated.

we've played all over behind the "orange curtain" (that's orange county california for any out -of -staters) and in some other incarnations we were also known as hagfish and bad acid disco (in the very remote possibility you saw us under those names).

a lot of club owners seem to have trouble with our name sometimes and have listed us as the "jellylegs" (which of course is perhaps how we looked toward the end of the night) and our personal favorite, the "jollywigs" (which sounds like the founding fathers after a few boston ales). many people, believe it or not, ask us exactly what a jellywig is and our answer really depends on what day it is. It's a noun, a verb, an adjective, a cocktail, a grandmaster chess move, the name of the drummer's departed pet monkey, or a tasty chewy fruit candy - the list is endless as well as subjective.

musical style? well that's a good question as well. we'd appreciate any feedback on what you, the listener, thinks it is.
