JACKYL: New Video Interview With JESSE JAMES DUPREE Available
May 4, 2010Georgia-based rockers JACKYL — featuring frontman Jesse James Dupree, guitarist Jeff Worley, bassist Roman Glick and drummer Chris Worley — have just released their new studio album, "When Moonshine and Dynamite Collide", via Mighty Loud. The CD's lead single, "She's Not A Drug", entered the Active Rock charts at #57 and continues to receive generous spins at stations such as KQRC - Kansas City; WFTK - Cincinnati; WJJO - Madison, WI; WXRX, Rockford, IL; WIIL - Chicago; and WIYY - Baltimore, just to name a few.
To celebrate the release of the new album, JACKYL is embarking on a promotional tour called "April Showers Bring May JACKYL T?#@Y-Bar Dates". Partnering with radio in cities across the south and Midwest, the band has targeted some of their favorite strip clubs in which to throw a series of CD-release parties that will double as on-location video shoots for "She's Not A Drug".
Vocalist Jesse James Dupree had this to say: "JACKYL is working with rock radio stations in some of the coolest rock cities and taking rock back to the dirty dirty."
"When the kids in the '50s were interviewed and asked why they were digging this new rock and roll, they didn't say because it's going to bring world peace or cure cancer, they were getting hot and bothered ... shake it shake it shiney go-go boots and lots of hiney shaking… puh-pow!!!!"
JACKYL has earned two Guinness Book of World Records citations and the designation "The Hardest Working Band in Rock 'N' Roll" for performing 100 shows in 50 days as well as 21 shows in 24 hours. Staying true to its working-band roots, JACKYL is a staple on the summer festival circuit and maintains their commitment to every show being the sonic equivalent to a man being shot out of a cannon.
JACKYL was recently featured on the hit TruTV show "Full Throttle Saloon", which was created and executive produced by Jesse James Dupree, and the band will be headlining an extensive tour through 2010 in support of "When Moonshine and Dynamite Collide".
Dupree recently sat down with Fangoria TV while in New York City promoting the new album. Check out the video interview in two parts below.
