MUSIC NEWS- The anticipated JP, Chrissie, & The Fairground Boys full band tour across the USA has been announced, and will start up on September 17th in Atlanta, GA, and will visit such legendary venues as Nashville's Exit In, Park West in Chicago and the House of Blues Sunset Strip.
Their new album, Fidelity!, is releasing on August 24th through their own La Mina Records in partnership with Rocket Science Ventures. Vinyl junkies take note - a collector's limited edition 7" single of "If You Let Me" has been released exclusively for independent music stores (locations via RecordStoreDay.com RecordStoreDay.com).
"Record stores owe a huge debt to Chrissie Hynde as the Pretenders played at the indie record store creative conference Noise In The Basement in 2007. This is where we dreamed up Record Store Day. I knew then that we needed to be a part of launching this amazing new band. We're proud that they chose to release their new music on vinyl first.
It says a lot about who they are and how they feel about music," say Michael Kurtz co-founder, Record Store Day.
JP, Chrissie & The Fairground Boys will perform "If You Let Me" on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon on August 11th, backed by none other than The Roots.
