I'm very pleased to have played in this year's KNON 89.3 FM Blues Festival! We are currently booking only private engagements and festival dates... Give me a call at 972-814-7428 for prices and terms for your entertainment needs.

Email me for details on buying our CD -- "Live at The BONE - 8/10/2000".

Anyways... I'm "Big Jim" Wells, originally from Ithaca, New York (1950 to 1978) and from Dallas, Texas (1979 to the present). I'm the founder, guitarist/slide guitarist/harp player, and one of a few vocalists in the band.

The music The Nightowls play includes generally Blues, Texas Blues (yes, there is a difference!), R&B, a few of what we think are the best of old and classic rock & roll tunes, and other "stuff" (a technical term, "stuff") that you might ask us to do. The band has from two to as many as ten, or so, musicians (depending on venue and how we configure our horn section). I'm on guitar, slide guitar, harp and vocals, Jon Griffin is fantastic on guitar and vocals, and various other fine folks comprise our rhythm section, horns, and keyboards.

Again, for booking information, call me at 972-814-7428 or email me at jwells@iadfw.net.
