Jim Jones All Stars

SBD presents

JIM JONES ALL STARS

Friday June 10th

A rocking new band from Jim Jones. Blistering rhythm & blues meets psych rock 'n' roll - with the devils horn section.

Joined by former Jim Jones Revue members Gavin Jay [bass] and Elliot Mortimer [piano and keyboards], The Jim Jones All Stars are augmented by guitarist Carlton Mounsher, singer Ali Jones, drummer Chris Ellul and the three-way sax attack of Stuart Dace, Chuchi Malapersona and Tom Hodges.

Born out of necessity, born out of wedlock and simply born to boogie, The Jim Jones All Stars are an unholy trinity of birth.

“The whole COVID/Brexit problem just made it impossible to continue with The Righteous Mind,” says Jim Jones, “but with various live offers and opportunities still coming in I had to come up with something, or else just go insane.

“Necessity, being the mother of invention, surprised us all when she delivered a healthy, heavyweight, blue-eyed amalgam of incendiary ramalama soul.”

This latest project sees him swan dive into not only his primordial influences and his own classic-packed back catalogue - we’re talking Thee Hypnotics, Black Moses, The Jim Jones Revue, and Jim Jones & The Righteous Mind - but also into a spicy gumbo of hot, new sounds.

Speaking of the new line-up, Jim Jones has a wicked glint in his eye when he says: “It’s a pleasure to have that much horn going on, as it allows me to plunge into the succulent, dark meat of the low-down, greasy, chitlin’ groove – that’s where all the flavour is! There’s a whole new planet of killer songs and I’m landing on it now, and preparing to plant my freak flag. And on top of that, we’re going to be deep-frying à la carte from my entire back catalogue. This is the gig you’ve been waiting for!”
