Bio

Stonewall Jackson Crippen is a native of southern Illinois, tiny town of four hundred people, the great metropolis known as Ullin. He started seriously playing guitar a bit late at the age of 13, but in just over a year was playing professional gigs with his father, Jack. Stonewall was self taught with guidance from his father, also a master of the instrument and veteran musician. Stonewall's first band 6120, was a rockabilly trio, based out of The Lake of the Ozarks Missouri. After a short stint with this group they disbanded leaving Stonewall orphaned from a very promising band. A couple of blues band and a million players later. Stonewall Jackson Band was formed. The most honest, mature writing and playing ever done by Jackson, his first solo album created a niche for the group. Mature lyrics with a rock edge, describing the tremendous pain and joy and loss that the last few years of his life have encompassed. "Every song on my record is real. There are no works of fiction. I just wrote about what I knew, I didn't hold anything back or add anything. I just put myself out there with everything I have. I found myself with this album. People ask all the time what our music sounds like. Of course I sound country, I grew up 20 miles from the Kentucky, Missouri, Illinois border. We're all rednecks down there. But there is an honesty in what I do that is just simply not there when compared to contemporary country. Then musically it's much less produced and much more aggressive".
Combine all these elements with a brutal live show, and the highest level of musicianship and you have Stonewall Jackson Band. Nothing more, nothing less.
