Janis Joplin... arguably one of the greatest female performers in the history of music. In under 5 years, she changed the face of Rock-N-Roll forever. Her emotional power and raw energy was incredible! When she sang she connected with us through her intense amount of feeling. The Ball And Chain Band want to continue that experience. Let us take you on a magical, musical journey, and join us as we transform local establishments and events into The Avalon Ball Room, The Montery Pop Festival, and Woodstock, taking you back to the sights and sounds of the 60's and 70's ......... Thanks for taking a look our site. Be sure to get in touch with us and share your thoughts and suggestions. We'll be updating frequently, so please check back often. Take care, and Rock On!
