Artist History
RESERVOIR JONES are a three piece Rock 'n' Roll
Punk outfit from Stockport, England. For the past
few months they have played to packed Pubs &
Clubs, across the Northwest, shifting many Tapes
and T-shirts along the way.
They have amassed quite a strong following
locally with playing the Student Haunts of
Manchester and Stockport regularly.

Group Members
Able to stun a crowd with their blistering
live performance, it's not going to be too
long before they get noticed.
Recently back in studio, they have cut,
without doubt, their best recordings to date,
courtesy of their local recording studio "The Shed"
Check out the webpage for a full run down on the recent tour
to Los Angeles. In need of the RIGHT manager. |

Press Reviews
Manchester now has less live venues than a right
hand has fingers and even less worth playing.
The last thing worth persevering within this environment
is a live band, or at least it would be if the band
in question weren’t so good.
Lets face it – you have to be different to get on in
a nothing scene like that and different is what these guys do.
They have energy, velocity, volume and …f**k it they’re good,
they’re fun. Music to drink to, to dance to and
jump about like a d**khead to if you can’t dance.
There’s only three of them and the sound is tight out
of necessity – you don’t last long if there’s only
three of you and you can’t play (not if you look like this
lot anyway). There’s a raw punk edge to the sound but there’s
more life to the tunes than that. The combination of
ability, good humour and lack of pretension earns them their
following.
Currently entirely self promoted via the
WWW and word of mouth, material is available on
the burgeoning digital MP3 format over the Internet
and on cassette and CD by request. They have already
shifted thousands of units this way alone. They also
have a range of merchandise available at gigs - shortly
to be moving through independent stores as well.
A British band will naturally gravitate towards London,
but perhaps due in part to the sound and also the nature
of their promotion, gig offers and major interest is currently
coming from the States. September saw them perform a number of
shows in Los Angeles, CA. A very succesfull tour. Criminal to think that
Reservoir Jones are likely to be poached away from
the UK.
Does their sound fit better over there?
Bollocks. Watch a gig, they go down a storm ANYWHERE.
