BONEHENGE MUSIC is a sole proprietorship founded by yours truly, John Wolf, in late summer of 1993 as the label for the CD of my jazz group, the JOHN WOLF QUARTET. The CD, entitled "FIRST LIGHT" is also available in cassette tape format.

Hopefully, as sales replenish the coffers of BONEHENGE, FIRST LIGHT will be joined by other recordings both by myself and by other St. Louis musicians and bands

 WELCOME TO THE NEW & IMPROVED (as of March 2009) BONEHENGE WEBSITE!!!

BONEHENGE MUSIC is also the company under which I operate other aspects of my business, which include:

• SMALL SCALE SOUND REINFORCEMENT, perfect for acoustic, jazz, and blues ensembles, and classical music groups. An eight-channel Peavey powered stereo mixer with 300 watts of power, two monitor mixes, on-board digital effects, and quality Peavey speakers and Shure microphones get the job done!

• DIGITAL, DIRECT-TO-DAT (DIGITAL AUDIO TAPE) RECORDING, either in my basement studio or on location.

• DIGITAL HARD-DRIVE-BASED MULTI-TRACK RECORDING!!! Using a MacIntosh "Mac Pro" computer, 16-channel Mackie mixer and the incredible DIGIDESIGN 003/PRO-TOOLS LE, I am now able to record up to 16 tracks at a time (total: 64 tracks), mix, master, and produce C-D's, along with excellent color printing and labeling. For those who prefer to record in my studio and do the C-D reproduction and printing elsewhere, I can produce DAT masters, C-D masters, and artwork ready to send to an "online" printshop-all within my basement studio!

• MUSIC ARRANGING, COMPOSING, AND PUBLISHING, using the excellent FINALE notation program.

While you're here, you can find out more about yours truly, JOHN WOLF, the JOHN WOLF QUARTET and its members. Also, if you're in the St. Louis area or wish to find out where I'm performing outside the St. Louis area-and who with- peruse my CALENDAR, where you will find out where, and with whom, I am playing. Also, for the latest breaking music and other news, and my views on various subjects which may be of interest, check out the NEWS and VIEWS page.

I left the seminal jump-blues ensemble ROOMFUL OF BLUES at the end of July 1999 for family reasons, and to pursue other projects.  Since then, I've played several shows a year with them, and with the untimely passing of ROOMFUL trumpeter Robert Enos in January of 2008, was asked to perform with ROOMFUL on last year's LEGENDARY BLUES CRUISE, as well as on some other shows.  I will likely perform occasionally with them in the future.  Click on the link above to access their webpage, find out the latest, and find out where they're playing. To date BONEHENGE MUSIC has produced two St. Louis shows for ROOMFUL, and as soon as I plan the next one, you'll find out about it right here-and you'll be able to buy tickets here, as well!

• NEWSFLASH!!! WORK HAS BEGUN ON 2 NEW C-D'S! I have started rehearsing and recording with St. Louis guitar master DAVE BLACKand a real find-classically trained, highly creative soprano JESSICA HEUSER. We will be working in the studio as well as recording some live gigs (see schedule for upcoming dates) in March and May, and hope to release early this summer.  I plan on soon convening the JOHN WOLF QUARTET to rehearse my original material, as well as arrangements of great jazz compositions by JACKIE McLEAN, DUKE ELLINGTON, ARCHIE SHEPP and others.  Personnel will include members of my original QUARTET such as GARY SYKES, TOM RICKARD and MARGARET BIANCHETTA as well as new faces such as JESSICA HEUSER, WILLEM VON HOMBRACHT, and others.  I may also include tracks recorded with my CAPE COD-based Quartet-fine young musicians living in Boston and New York who gig on the Cape and have provided much musical excitement.  Release, realistically, will probably be later in the summer.  STAY TUNED!!!
