For more than three decades, Jupiter Coyote has carved out its own lane in American roots music with its signature “Mountain Rock” sound, a high energy blend of Southern rock, Appalachian boogie, bluegrass, and funk. Formed in 1988 by childhood friends Matthew B. Mayes and John Felty, the band has performed more than 6,000 shows, independently sold over a million albums, and become a pioneering force in the jam band scene. Known for their rich vocal harmonies, inventive instrumentation including the guijo, and a fiercely independent spirit, Jupiter Coyote has shared stages with The Allman Brothers Band, Dave Matthews, Widespread Panic, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and many more while headlining festivals and venues across the country.

A prolific songwriting outfit, Jupiter Coyote has released an expansive catalog of studio and live albums along with a steady stream of singles on major digital platforms, continuing to evolve while staying true to their roots. Led by principal songwriter Matthew B. Mayes, whose 300 plus songs explore heartache, humor, and soul searching themes, the band remains a gold standard for independent touring acts. With dynamic musicianship, dual drummers, driving slide guitars, and fiddle woven into their sound, Jupiter Coyote delivers a live experience that is both timeless and uniquely their own.
