INTRODUCING :: THE JONESEZ
Posted by Bomber on Monday, March 08 @ 21:53:50 CST (9 reads)
With Horsell Common less than 3 weeks away from being officially dead, singer / guitarist Mark Stewart has wasted no time moving on. He calls it Jonesez but it's not really a band, even though it certainly sounds like one. It's best described as a solo project with help from some of his best friends. An album was recorded over the summer at Atlantis and it will be released in the coming months. But first, a taste. Go to jonesez.com.au to hear the first track from the Atlantis sessions, a cover of the old Fang track, The Money Will Roll Right In.
