Cathead Biscuit is Mighty Jeff Carey (guitar,
resonataor, lap steel, bass drum and lead
backing vocals).





















Formed when the two met in 2004 while Jeff
was hosting a acoustic blues jam at a local
coffee house. After jamming together week
after week, they decided to play some gigs
together and Cathead Biscuit was formed.

Mighty Jeff Carey is from originally from
Hope, Arkansas. From a early age, he played
all through northeast Texas, northern
Louisiana and southern Arkansas - playing all
types of music as he developed his own style.
His bands, Rock Bottom and the Kicking Dogs,
played shows with Savoy Brown, Black Oak
Arkansas & Billy Joe Shaver. Jeff moved to
Rogers Arkansas in 1997 and formed the blues
trio the Pocket Rockets. Later he along with
Mike Murray formed The Groove Kings. By 2001
he was doing solo shows in the area and
fronting the Ozark Blues Society house band
at their weekly blues jams. In 2004 he was a
semi-finalist at the International Blues
Challenge in Memphis, competing against other
acts from around the world.

Mark Bokun is from Lake Charlesarea in
southern Louisiana. Being a army brat his
travels with his family open his eyes to many
sights and sounds that influenced his music.
His love for cajun and blues music gives his
style a very unique quality. Very rhythmic
with old school leads and fills.. Mark says I
really got into rhythm and blues listening to
my brothersÕ Clint West & the Boogie Kings,
Bobby Blue Bland, G.G. Shinn and the Roller
Coasters vinyl albums, but the Paul
Butterfield Blues Band definitely lit
something in my soul. After playing around
Louisiana he moved to the Ozark mountains
near the Steel Creek area. Mark then began
playing in bands and duos in the Harrison
area. He also has played with local acts Zack
Bramhall, the Tyrones, Jen B. & the Groove
Kings, Back Stage Pass, and the Eclectones
with George DuCharme Cathead Biscuit were
simi-finalist at the 2005 International Blues
Challenge after winning the Blues Society of
The Ozarks Memphis Bound Competition. Mighty
Jeff Carey also made to simi-finals in the
