Eric Dane Jaqua is a one-man-band based in Boyne City, Michigan. He has been a long time FootDrum player and we are lucky enough to now live nearby and take in some live shows with this very talented musician! He is busy playing many shows in the local region year-round – as his one-man-band (EDJOMB) and as part of a duo, The Pistil Whips.
The Pistil Whips combine the styles of funk, blues, and jazz to make a sound all their own. Eric Dane Jaqua plays the FootDrum, guitar and vocals simultaneously. With Will Love on sax, clarinet, keys and beatbox flute.
Will and Eric met at Bliss Fest, a roots music festival that takes place near Cross Village MI, in the summer of 2013. Will was there to perform with Boyne City-ites The Galactic Sherpas. Eric was also there with northern MI premier blues duo Hipps-N-Ricco. They joined forces to become eternal brothers of funk. They are The Pistil Whips.
