Hey, Gang!! INTOXICATS are having a BEACH BALL! Beat the heat with a neat beat that can’t be beat!
Jake La Botz will get things started. He’s groovy! He’s got a song about a COMB!
Originating from Tropical Islands and the Frozen Tundra, INTOXICATS were born of a fevered haze one steamy summer night on an island in the middle of the Pacific.
Picture Gilligan’s Island with access to MTV, Get Smart, Hawaii Five-0, and I Dream of Jeannie re-runs.
Couple with an open bar tab. Shake. Serve. You get the picture.
GrooveXotica at its finest.
Jake La Botz’s rough and tumble Chicago upbringing took him from juvenile delinquency and punk rock to learning blues from the last of the Delta bluesmen. From there, with guitar in tow, he made his way across the U.S.A. until he hit the end of the line in Hollywood where an improbable acting career began to unfold.
After getting clean from heroin at thirty years old, La Botz became a Buddhist meditation practitioner and teacher. He also took his bluesy guitar licks to the Greater Mt. Zion Church in South Central L.A., where he steeped himself in Gospel music. Ever since then, La Botz has been putting out his own brand of Gospel-noir Americana. The eccentric stories, characters, and underlying spiritual messages often heard in his songs come to a head on his latest album, Hair on Fire.
Among more than twenty film and TV credits, La Botz has acted in True Detective, Rambo, and On the Road. His most recent film, D.O.A., stars fellow musician John Doe from the punk band X.
Beyond music and acting, La Botz is also a writer. A debut collection of short fiction is forthcoming from Cornerstone Press in April 2026. A graphic memoir is also in the works.
