Matthew B. Mayes is the founder of the popular Jam rock band Jupiter Coyote. As the principle songwriter and multi instrumentalist for the band for the past 17 years, his songs are filled with eclectic charters, heartache, and soul searching while musically running the gamut from rock, southern boogie, bluegrass and country rock. He has been playing music for over 25 years, played over 3500 shows and sold over a quarter of a million records independently while traveling all over the US and beyond; writing cult hit Coyote favorites like Crazy Women, Rose Hill, Ship In The Bottle, Real Thing, and Becky along the way. His songs have been in films, commercials, and TV programs. True to the independent spirit, Matt also handles all the business operations for JC as well as other acts through his MBM Entertainment LLC. His business models are touring based and it is rare to find management that can say they have actually been on the artist/touring side. He is a music guy on all levels with a comprehensive knowledge of the business and a road tested perspective.

John Meyer toured over much of the US and Canada with such bands as St. Savage, Flamin' Sally, Vex, Joe in the Chalk, Page III, and now toolshed ginger. He's a graduate of The Recording Workshop in Chillicothe, Ohio and is a certified recording engineer and sound technician, as well as being a producer. He has written and recorded almost 300 songs over the years, and has many of them running wildly all over the internet and in the hearts and minds of many strange people.
In the 90's, he was swept into a life of the Credit Reporting industry, and continued with this as well as a couple of other corporate jobs until he realized he was unhappy with it, and wanted to return to his first love - music.
John and Matt have been friends since 1988 - way back when Jupiter Coyote was starting, and now they find themselves coming full circle to "take care of bidness" once again......
