Welcome to Bucket City...
Jack Oblivian
Jack Oblivian and The Tennessee Tearjerkers
Jack "Oblivian" Yarber of The Tearjerkers was a key figure in the influential, Memphis based Compulsive Gamblers and the legendary '90s garage-punk band The Oblivians.
Though, to only ramble on about Yarber’s work with The Oblivians and skim over his other bands would be a cryin' shame. Beside the stack of gritty garage-punk that Yarber contributed to, are all of his other records that have consistently become more polished and focused throughout the years.
Yarber was born 100 miles away from Memphis in the small town of Corinth, Mississippi. However, by 1987, the bright lights of Memphis called and Yarber became a permanent fixture in the city that arguably invented rock-n-roll.

Availability: Oct/Nov 2009: Package dates with Lucero and John Paul Keith. Generally available for one offs, fly outs and regional dates.
