Our band, the "Deep Fried Pickle Project" is a jug-a-billy jamgrass band. Some say we sound like Beverly Hillbilies meet Sex Pistols. Others say we sound like 50 mad cows packed into a semi-truck trailer.
We play our music on homemade and traditional instruments such as "Wahboard-Zilla, washtub bass, saw, kazoos and beer trombone and also mandolin, guitars, harmonica and drums
