Overview

National mental health speaker and survivor Paul E. Jones—over 2.5 million reached across 150+ campuses—brings music and grit to “Look Into The Eyes - See The Heart.” After a 2020 hiatus crushed his 18-year company, Paul fought back from 15 months of depression by throwing himself back in to writing and producing music for the LOVE of GOD one tune at a time. On stage since age 5, this “edu-tainer” shares his suicide survival, blending lightning wit, music, and a mission: no child or adult should feel alone.

You can contact Paul today to discuss your project.

The Bootleggers Group at Leon's Live - great show...

On October 21st we had Paul Jones and his band the Bootleggers group play at our all new music venue Leon's Live in Marysville Ohio. we highly recommend and cant wait to have them back. We recently finished construction on a multi-million dollar music venue expansion. We wanted to create a unique, special and one of a kind place for the best live music in Central Ohio ( if not the whole State!) We feel that the bands that come here need to provide the same experience and these guys brought it!!!
Looking forward to having them back - SOON!!

What to expect

When you book The Bootleggers Music Group for your event or venue you can expect an incredibly professional and polished set of Musicians/Entertainers who LOVE to make people happy. A very interactive show with FUN in mind.
With years and years of road experience we truly understand what the word "SHOW" means and it shows every time we take the stage.
With over 2 years in the studio it is now time to take our music as well as some covers on the road!

About

The Bootlegger’s Music Group is a global collective of musicians, artists, producers, and writers, born in 2020 under Paul E. Jones and Wayne Maxwell. We thrive on an “eighth continent”—a borderless realm where music is love, and love feeds all. Soul’s our currency, richer than gold, shared freely through every note, whether you’re broke or blessed.

We unite voices from all walks—Americana to jazz, rap to Christian rock, blues to classical—defying genre, defying division. Our mission? Forge a world that’s kinder, one tune at a time. Music’s our universal tongue, a sacred vibration that lifts, heals, and touches the soul’s quiet corners.

Diverse in sound and spirit, our growing tribe revels in creation—God’s spark in everyone. A jazz fan might find faith in our rock, a Christian might sway to our blues. Faith fuels many of us, but not dogma—our latest, “Jesus Is To Be Praised,” spans seven languages and continents, blending Muslims, Christians, and more in harmony. That’s our proof: music’s the land where peace reigns.

Want Paul or the Bootleggers to Play at your event? Contact our Booking Agent head to the Booking page and get the process started!

We look forward to putting a show together with you!

Additional booking notes

Our footprint is very small. We have full sound gear when needed.
We DO NOT believe in loud Music, we believe that all should have fun and be able to communicate with those they are with. So if you want ear bleeding noise we are NOT you band!
