Experience

Strawbury Jam's band members are all professional, highly motivated and talented individuals. We aim to please! The band has performed at festivals, corporate events, trendy bars, local community events and private parties. Our guitarist, Josiah, toured regionally prior to joining us in 2020. Our bass player, Ben, played the Nashville scene for many years before moving to Indy. Jenn studied voice at Butler University but chose a corporate path upon graduation. She has continued singing on the side for bands, productions and even has some voiceover experience. Mike is a rocking drummer tha ... t keeps the rest of us on track and guarantees the beat will tempt an audience to dance! His drumming experience spans several decades of playing with quality, classic rock bands. He took a leap of faith in partnering with Jenn to launch Strawbury Jam! As a team, Mike and Jenn are fantastic to work with. They both come from a business background and that is evident when you meet them. You will not be disappointed when you hire Strawbury Jam.

Meet the Act

Mike and Jenn are co-owners and met while playing in a classic rock band. Having played in many bands throughout the years, they both wanted to play country music and had very clear ideas of how they would like to run a band. Neither had the time to tackle the task on their own so Strawbury Jam was created as a partnership using the unique talents and skills of each to launch one of the best modern country bands in Indiana. After the long and arduous task of searching and more searching for the Dream Team, we hit the jackpot! The band consists of 4 mainstay, experienced and very talented pe ... rformers:
Mike Christen, drummer - Mike knew he wanted to play professionally after drumming for his high school's production of Music Man! His parents knew they were in Trouble, which starts with a "T", and that rhymes with "D" and that stands for DRUMS! He began with Midlife Crisis - the band, not the real thing, and quickly realized that classic rock was his wheelhouse. Mike later moved on to play with some great bands that include Little Eddie and the Fossils, Paige 6, Six Figures, The Echo Station and Full Tilt.
Jenn Moe, lead vocalist - Jenn's love of music sprouted from Broadway shows. After graduating from Butler University with a BA in Marketing and an emphasis in vocal performance, The Five Easy Pieces were the first to hire Jenn as a lead vocalist performing genres ranging from jazz to disco. Professionally, Jenn has since sung for a variety of bands covering many genres - The Cool Chiles (Latin/TexMex Orchestral band), Airstream Betty (Country), The Tides (Variety), Dwight Lightning and the Conch City All Stars (Island Rock), Cruise Control (Yacht Rock) and Full Tilt (Classic Rock).
Josiah Bryan, guitarist - graduated from IUPUI with a degree in Economics. He immediately hit the road with a touring band much to the surprise of his parents! After a year of living the gypsy life, Josiah returned to Indy and began 'adulting'. The timing was perfect - we needed a talented young guitarist and he needed to get back out on the stage!
Ben Denen, bass - Graduated from Belmont University and remained in Nashville for many years playing gigs and working as a studio musician. Ben moved to Indy and continued his work in the music industry by forming his own production and composition company.
We also have several part-time members we call on to help boost performances for larger venues and bigger events. Read More
