A discussion w Bear and a Banjo creators Dennis Quaid, Poo Bear and Jingle Jared

Bear and a Banjo is a new musical podcast that tells the incredibly tall tale of a band that time forgot. Although history may have left them behind, Bear and Banjo rubbed shoulders with some of the greatest musical icons in history—from Leadbelly and Sister Rosetta Tharpe to Little Richard and Bob Dylan— unwittingly influencing the course of 20th century Americana. All their adventures are meticulously archived and presented by Dr. Q, played by Dennis Quaid. Bear and a Banjo features an original soundtrack, produced by Oscar-winner T-Bone Burnett (O’ Brother Where Art Thou, True Detective), written and performed by series creator Jingle Jared &amp; Grammy-winning songwriter Jason "Poo Bear” Boyd with original lyrics by Bob Dylan.

Bear and a Banjo: Official Trailer

This show is like the quantum leap of rock ‘n’ roll. These two characters pop in whenever and wherever something’s about to happen, influence the right person and... history happens!
The characters are a little over the top but, they’re so enjoyable I can’t wait for season 2. 
Dennis Quaid is terrific as usual and the music is awesome. Never thought I’d be looking forward to hearing more from the guy who writes for Justin Bieber ( he’s not the genre I like) but, Poo Bear can really rock in any style!
I look forward to hearing more from Bear and Banjo!

Great show!

I really wanted to like this, given the talent and premise. Unfortunately the storylines are disjointed and overly wrought. The music just doesn’t fit the genre or timeframe. Characters never develop fully or even really become likable.  Season finale was a letdown. My takeaway is that it’s more of an ego project for Jingle Jared and Pooh Bear than a truly inspired drama.  Production on some epis is fantastic and I really liked the live performance bonus. Strip away the overproduction and those songs are pretty good.

Sadly misses the mark for me
