Most die-hard music fans know them as Bud and JD, of The Boxmasters--to others they're Academy Award winning actor and filmmaker, Billy Bob Thornton and Grammy Award winning engineer, J.D.

Andrew.

Formed in 2007, The Boxmasters have recorded a diverse catalogue of sound that touches on their wide range of influences, most importantly, the rock and roll of the 1960's.

With 17 albums and numerous songs written, the duo says they constantly strive to find new inspiration, new sounds and new ways of expressing what is in their hearts and on their minds.

As a touring band, The Boxmasters have cultivated a rabid cult fanbase across the United States and Canada.

Opening for the likes of ZZ Top, Steve Miller and Los Lobos.
