J. D. Wilkes

Joshua "J. D." Wilkes (born April 18, 1972, Baytown, Texas, United States) is an American visual artist, musician, amateur filmmaker and author. He is also an accomplished harmonica player, having recorded for such artists as Merle Haggard, John Carter Cash, Mike Patton, and Hank Williams III. He plays harmonica for Hank Williams III in the 2004 "American Masters" film Hank Williams: Honky Tonk Blues. His song "Swampblood" can be heard on the Grammy-nominated soundtrack for HBO's ''True Blood'' series. He is a resident of Paducah, Kentucky.
==Biography==
Wilkes is known as the founder and only remaining original member of the Legendary Shack Shakers, a rockabilly/blues band he formed in Murray, Kentucky, in the mid 1990s. Regarding the band's "southern gothic" lyricism, Billboard Magazine said "(Wilkes writes) mind-blowing lyrics rife with Biblical references and ruminations of life, death, sin and redemption."
Wilkes' contributions to the visual arts include many illustrations, comic strips, and sideshow banners. His satirical "Head Cheese" strip was seen in the Nashville RAGE/Metromix weekly from 2005–2008. Other illustrative works by Wilkes have been seen in Juxtapoz, Snicker, ALARM Magazine, and TopShelfComix.com. Wilkes illustrated the book "Spookiest Stories Ever" for the University Press of Kentucky, released in 2010.〔()〕
In October 2013, The History Press published Wilkes' book "Barn Dances and Jamborees Across Kentucky", a history of traditional music get-togethers in the Bluegrass State.〔()〕 He holds a bachelor's degree in Studio Art from Kentucky's Murray State University.
In 2006, Wilkes, began work on a documentary film titled ''(Seven Signs )'', that explored "music, myth, and the American South." The film premiered on December 30, 2007, at the Belcourt Theatre in Nashville, Tennessee and debuted in the UK at London's prestigious Raindance Film Festival.〔() 〕 In early 2009, Wilkes formed The Dirt Daubers, an old-time roots-influenced side project with his wife, Jessica, and "Slow" Layne Hendrickson. The band's self-titled debut was released in October 2009. They are now referred to as JD Wilkes and the Dirt Daubers.
Occasionally, Wilkes and the Shack Shakers appear in the Danish theatrical production F.U.B.A.R., a production of Copenhagen's Mute Comp Theatre. The play, which tackles the subject of illegal gun trade around the globe, features a speaking part by J.D. He also reprised his "gothic preacher" character (developed for Shooter Jennings' ''The Real Me'' video) when he acted as the presenter at the 2013 Addy Awards in Cincinnati, Ohio.
In May 2014, Wilkes was selected by mayor Gayle Kaler to represent his home city of Paducah, Kentucky in a cultural exchange with The Lord Mayor of Dublin, Ireland. Wilkes was met by author/actor/playwright and deputy Lord Mayor Gerard Mannix Flynn at the Mansion House in Dublin, where the two exchanged gifts as part of a UNESCO-sponsored reception. Flynn was given a quilt from Paducah's MAQS museum and a copy of Wilkes' book on barn dances. Wilkes was provided with a copy of Flynn's novel and other literature to present to Paducah's mayor Gayle Kaler.
