Self Titled Album by Plecostumus Jones

Self titled Album out now. A cacophony of musical influences contained in 8 tracks, from the sweet banjo heavy “Bitterness in Sunshine” to the trip hop rock of “Audacity”, all held together by the thinnest of through lines. Acoustic pop hits with mind burrowing hooks like “I’m a Phantom” and “Faithless” mix seamlessly with philosophic folk grit like “Common Caste Revival” and “A Traitor’s last request.”

“Good Advice for Bad People” by Plecostomus Jones

The Sophomore effort from Plecostomus Jones titled “ Good Advice for Bad People” is a exercise in self examination with plenty of blame to go around, to lost love in songs like “Franklin #59” and “Death in Goodbye”. Beautiful moments are explored in “Lipstick and Homicide” ( The Albums first single) contrasted against the exploration of mental illness in “ Interesting Earth” and “The Trauma you Sold”. A deep dive into the human psyche, and all available for free on Spotify and every other streaming service.

About Plecostomus Jones

Its all about communication. Words mean very little behind tone and cadence, we can speak forever and you’d never understand me, but let me show you a song, and we can cry, or laugh, or hurt together, and then you’ll hear what I am trying to say.  Empathy is best achieved through melody. 

Its gives me time to think, time to plan out all the words and imperceptible vocal shift and dress my intent up in guitar riffs and violin lines and drums and everything that fits to make my point, and to make it clearly.

Except then, sometimes my intention changes, and instead it reveals itself to me, and I realize my foolishness.

I thought for a minute that I knew what I was talking about.

Plecostomus Jones can be seen playing around Northern Indiana, Ohio, and Illinois, and is preparing to release his second album in the Fall of 2024.
