We are excited to announce that Jounce will open for the Meat Puppets at Mexicali Live in Teaneck, NJ on Sunday, November 6th. Many of you may be familiar with the Meat Puppets from when members and brothers Cris and Kurt Kirkwood served as guest musicians on Nirvana’s MTV Unplugged performance in 1993 and Meat Puppets songs “Plateau”, “Oh Me” and “Lake of Fire” were played.

Jounce is honored to be opening for such an influential and inspring band. Advance tickets are available via TicketWeb. Enjoy the music video above from another Meat Puppets song you may recognize, “Backwater.”

FREE Brooklyn Bowl End of Summer Jounce

It’s a celebration! The end of summer is drawing near, and Jounce felt it was necessary to throw a FREE end of summer party at the coolest venue in all of the land.

Any excuse is a good one to go to Brooklyn Bowl, so why not come shake your ass on the dance floor while drinking the freshest selection of Brooklyn beers this side of the Gowanus (They also have bowling and the best fried chicken in NYC).

We cant wait to see our friends and will be hanging out all night. Our good friends Dear Lions (featuring former Jounce roommate and frequent collaborator James Preston) will be joining us, as well as some other special guests. It all takes place Tuesday, August 30th. Oh yeah, did we mention it’s free?!
