Description
**Johnny Mullenax Band with Max Kaplan & The Magics live at Eddie's Attic!**
*Johnny Mullenax Band*
Johnny Mullenax, a Tulsa native, grew up in a musical family. He started playing the guitar atage 5. In his teens, he followed his family to the Walnut Valley Festival in Winfield, Kansas. In typical Johnny fashion, he showed up with just a guitar and ended up sleeping in a stand up bass case. At 18, he used a friend’s ID to get into a club where he was part of a live hip hop band backing rappers. According to Johnny, “Life is too short to play one style of music, and if you have an opportunity to try something different then you should give it a shot.”
Claiming wide-ranging influences from AC/DC and The Ramones to John Coltrane and Parliament, Johnny calls his genre-bending sound a funky country bluegrass good time!
Before COVID, Johnny went out on the road with fellow Okie TJ McFarland (Tennessee Jet)and started connecting to a network of other touring musicians. He always wanted to starthis own project, and after playing as a sideman for seven years with several bands, he finallytook that leap.
*Max Kaplan & The Magics*
After touring internationally as a guitarist, bassist, and vocalist for artists like Jason D. Williams, John Nemeth, and others- Max Kaplan started his own band using the all star up and coming Memphis musicians that he met through playing with those notable artists. After recording his debut album during the pandemic of 2020, Max set to touring with the band. The Magics bring a fiery mix of original rock & roll, heavy blues, and sensual soul music. They've performed over 300 shows in Memphis, regionally, and nationally.
