Band/artist history
The Codenames started as a joke and some say they still are. Stumble Lee, D.J. Snapps, Jonny Two-Times and Jimmy Jack Cash are just four rockin daddies from Americas heartland. Their kooky songs are chock full of stories about zombies, snakemen, and hairy girlfriends.
Boredom. Thats what started it all. Theres not much to do in Muhlenberg County, Kentucky unless you play basketball or work in a coal mine.
Jonny Two-Times and Stumble Lee started making silly boom box tapes to kill some time and amuse their friends. Soon Stumbles brother D.J. Snapps was getting in on the fun.
When Snapps purchased one of those newfangled digital recorders with a CD burner, The Fabulous Codenames started burning CDs and getting them played on local radio stations.
As they say in most cheesy stories, the rest is history.Have you performed in front of an audience?Yes.
We were once heckled by a skunk ape.
Your musical influences
The Replacements, The Blues Brothers, Johnny Cash and Scooby Doo.What equipment do you use?
We use guitars, microphones and drums.Anything else?
We have never bitten nor been bitten by a vampire,werewolf,or swamp beast.
