Artist description Fueling the band with his rock influenced, funky, and folky songwriting, Jake Incao's infectious melodies, reflective lyrics, and show-stopping intensity always incite and connect with the dancing and singing audiences. Backing up Jakes rhythm guitar and singing are the dueling lead guitars of Brian Duggan and James Rowland whose experimentation with harmonies and effects gives alternating textures to the music. James and Brian often switch to organ or piano to compliment one another and to keep everything interesting. The groove is always set up, smacked down, and accentuated by Hurls on percussion and S-Dog on basses, who together make up the backbone and establish what they call The Pouch.

Artist History The Pouch exploded onto the Long Island live music scene during the spring of 2001 under the original moniker of Jake's Magic Pouch . Headlining every Monday at Backstreet Blues in Rockville Centre, The Pouch has cultivated a strong following of fans, who affectionately refer to themselves as Poucheads. This humble beginning gave The Pouch the live experience and fans they needed to catapult themselves into New York City's live music scene. The Pouch have performed in front of packed houses at such infamous venues as 'The Elbow Room' and 'Mulcahys.'
