BooKooFly is a coalition of the brothers and sisters of Jonathan Edward Garnache aka: “Jonny G”, “G-Money”, “G-Force”, “G-Puppy”, “JedwardG”, or just plain and simple…”G”. Few Musicians, let alone songwriters, have had the hands-on training and life experience of playing so many different styles of music not just for fun, but also as a profession. Imagine growing up playing electric bass to Cream and Hendrix and then making a drastic turn at age 19 to playing Classical String Bass in L.A. Studios, SoCal symphony orchestras, and even performing in front of the Ventura Symphony as part of a string bass quartet performing the “Gunther Schuler Quartet for Double Basses!” Then, after moving to Hawaii and living the dream of playing in the Honolulu Symphony and surfing his afternoons away, Jonny G returns to L.A. and the electric bass to record with Tower of Power, Bob Dylan, Eddie Money, The Righteous Brothers and more. In addition to studio work, The G Man toured with Ry Cooder opening for Eric Clapton, The Duane Eddy Band (featuring guitarists Albert Lee, Lindsay Buckingham, James Burton) “The Big Man” Clarence Clemons from the E Street Band and “The Starship featuring Mickey Thomas.” Ever the musical explorer, Mr. G decided to bring all these elements together, combined with a love of pure funk, Latin, ska-punk, R&B and rock, to create a truly unique heretofore unheard of groove and style that lights up the dance floor with spark and spunk and tickles your funny bone with sly and clever lyrics designed to lose the blues, take a cruise, sit and muse, drink some booze, stare at shoes, blow a fuse, pick and choose, take a snooze, or whatever youse guys may want after BooKoo puts the Woo Hoo in your…see what I mean! BooKooFly is music to lift your soul played by great musicians that are great friends recorded by great engineers and enjoyed by great people as yourself who are building a great world…not destroying it! One Love-Many Grooves. BooKoo thanks to you all. Jonathan Edward G
