Press Quotes

“Jacox’s primary contribution to the Twin Cities’ R&B community was as the lead vocalist for the legendary R&B band, Willie & The Bumblebees. Their Honey From The Bee LP is a highly collectible record that has been featured in the pages of Wax Poetics. Jacox’s smooth falsetto and powerful stage presence rival that of the greatest names in soul music.”

“Is he an R&B screamer? An intimate lounge crooner? The sexy sax man from Willie & the Bees and the Butanes? The singer-actor who staged a Nat King Cole tribute show? The classical wannabe doing “Besame Mucho” with an orchestra? The soul serenader at the New Standards holiday show? An electric flute player in the Electric Flag? He is all of the above.”
