JONNY LIVES!
JONNY LIVES!
New York Newer Wave
Jonny Dubowsky (Vocals/Guitars), Christian Langdon (Guitar/Vocals), Jonny Webber (Drums// Vocals), Tommy USA (Bass/Vocals)
NYC's hottest new rock thrill? For sure. Jonny Lives! have already toured the UK with bands like Sonic Youth and the Killers, have already received standing ovations from the UK music press, and are now enjoying radio play on speciality radio stations all over.
“Get Steady” is a gloss-n-grit blast of rock - the lovechild of a crazy 48 hours in the UK that included a run of shows with the Kaiser Chiefs, a Music Awards party riot, a bottle of tequila with Dave Grohl, cigars with the Kings of Leon, and a wrestling match with UK DJ femmes the Queens of Noize. The weekend’s insanity filtered back to NYC, where a sleazy guitar riff hit frontman Jonny Dubowsky like a ton of bricks ú all he could do while enjoying another booze-soaked night was grab a pen. On a napkin at Niagra, a favorite Lower East Side hang out, Jonny jotted down the anthem that would become the band’s calling card and is already becoming a 21st century ranthem.
It's their first proper single release and is included in the upcoming sequel to the hit film Van Wilder. It's already been featured on various hit X-box/Playstation games and earned Jonny Lives! TV and more attention. Plus the five-song EP includes cameos from Nick Valensi (The Strokes), Sammy James Jr. (The Mooney Suzuki), and Jodi Porter (Fountains of Wayne).
New York's Village Voice describes Jonny Lives! as “downtown bar punks” and their live show as “post-Radiohead pop/rock with teaming guitars and airy vocals, you owe it to yourself to see them.”
UK's NME simply says “pant-droppingly brilliant.” The debut album is out in August. You can't wait.
