'FAN PHOTOS GALLERY ADDED'

Today saw the launch of the long awaited 'Fan Photos Gallery'.

The Gallery is situated in the 'Media' button at the top of the page. It is a place where you can share your photos of J Road with other fans.

If you have any photos of the band that you would like to share with others here on the website, please This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it to send them to me and I will get them added.

The more embarrassing the better!

'BLOWN AWAY AT FARADAY'

Thursday saw J Road take to the stage at the Faraday Club in Slough.

The band served up 3 courses of what is fast becoming their trade mark; up-to-date, hot off the press, mega hits with a dash of old favourites for good measure, and by the time the packed room of watches and dances had gorged themselves on covers by artists such as Lady Antebellum, Brad Paisley, Kellie Picker, Keith Urban and The Dixie Chicks, to name but a few, they were truly satisfied, leaving just enough room for a Big & Rich dessert.

A great night was had by all, including the band and they have informed me that for all those who asked, the album will be available soon, and will have a couple of surprises on it, but I can't give too much away!

'ANOTHER GREAT NIGHT AT THE VIKING'

Yet another fantastic night was had at The Viking.

Saturday June 12th saw Jellico Road bring the house down once again at The Viking, Selsey, and even a dismal display by England's lacklustre football team against the USA could not dampen the spirits of the gathering crowd who had come to see J Road.

The band performed 2 sets, alternating with the fantastic duo 'Blood Brothers', who were invited back to the stage by J Road at the end of the night for a wonderful rendition of Sweet Home Alabama.

"We love playing The Viking", said Craig. "There is always a great atmosphere here and everybody is always so friendly, we can't wait to come back!"

'DEBUT STUDIO ALBUM PLANNED'

J Road have made the first steps to planning their first album.

"It will be a covers album which should hopefully be a huge hit with the Linedancers and Country fans alike. We've put a lot of thought into the song choices, but we are keeping that a secret until the album is released", said Craig.

"Studio time has already been booked and we are just tying up a few loose ends before we get started. We are very excited about this and look forward to hearing the result", added John.

'FANTASTIC NEW SONGS'

Today I had the pleasure of being invited along to hear Jellico Road rehearse the latest additions to their repertoire.

They are adding some fantastic new songs to their sets, including Lady Antebellum's 'One Day You Will', Trisha Yearwood's 'They Call It Falling For A Reason', Luke Bryan's 'Rain Is A Good Thing', Reba McEntire's 'Pink Guitar' and the beautiful 'I Loved Her First' by Heartland.

The band informed me that there are to be 14 new songs added to the sets, "Some of the latest additions are brand new songs that are being danced to right now around the linedance clubs and some are old favourites that everybody still loves" said J Road's John Henry.

'BACK AT THE VIKING'

Following a hugely successful show at The Viking, Selsey, in May, J Road have been invited back to perform on June 12.

When the band were informed of this they were understandably delighted as they'd enjoyed it so much the time before.

Upon hearing the news, the band said, "We can't wait to see everybody at The Viking once again for our second coming. We've got several new songs we'll be adding before then so even if people have seen us before, they wouldn't have seen our entire repertoire.".

'THE BEST NEW BAND OF 2010'

Not my words, these are the words of the poster hanging on the wall at the front of The Viking, Selsey, on Saturday night. The band arrived in time to see Chelsea win the F.A Cup on the big screens in the bar area. John and Craig were familiar with the venue as they had played there 6 years previous with Sidewinder.

Once their first set started it wasn't long before the dance floor was full and that's how it remained for most of the band's 3 sets. They performed a few new songs that they hadn't even had time to rehearse, songs like 'American Honey', 'I Told You So', 'American Saturday Night' and 'Bobbi With An I' to name but 4. After the gig the band said, "It was great to see so many people there that we had met at previous gigs, some had travelled for 2 and a half hours to see us, they told us they had a fantastic night and that the journey was worth it, so that makes us feel good."

The band would like to thank everybody who came to see them and they hope you all had a great time!
