“The Best Band You've Never Heard Of.“ Something Good is almost too humble of a title for JD3's new album, as the band's songwriting and playing has ratcheted up a number of notches. The 11 tracks quickly bring to mind echoes of everything from Stevie Ray Vaughn to Otis Redding to CCR, but, with a deeper dive, those easy touchstones all meld together into JD3's own special brand of the blues. “It always comes back to the blues,“ comments singer/guitarist Nate Mosley. “I got into the blues almost by accident as a kid. I had a record player that couldn't play 45s, so I listened to the first record I ever bought, “Don't Bring Me Down,“ by ELO, at 33 - the wrong speed - and what came out of the speakers was unmistakably blues. The vocals were lower, the tempo was slower and everything had this power that just grabbed me. And through sheer coincidence, that low end was the singing voice I ended up having too.“ Mosley formed the band with drummer Paul Osborn after both being frustrated with punching a clock in various cover bands. “Paul and I were both between bands, and we wanted to do something else. Something that we really could get behind. It had to be original music and, even though we didn't need to discuss it, it had to be rooted in the blues. Once we added in Stu (Way) on bass, in 2012, we had the classic power trio lineup and made our first record as The Jondo Trio.“ Fate intervened in 2016, and the Trio became JD3. “I got cancer,“ Mosley explains, “and had to have my jaw removed and rebuilt - literally. For a while I couldn't sing fully, I didn't have my voice back, so we had our friend Chris Daffron start playing horns and keyboards, and morphed into a four- piece out of pure necessity.“ That expansion solidified the band as a bluesy powerhouse and also spurred a change in their songwriting that yielded a bigger, rawer, more diverse sound and their boldest record yet - one under the monicker of JD3 & The Jondo Trio so fans of both incarnations of the group can find them. Packing a memorable punch of swampy soul, Texas boogie and Detroit rock, all held together in that framework of the blues, it's more than Something Good, it's something you remember. “Nate Mosley has a great voice, Jim Morrison meets Eddie Vedder, with a spooky blues joyful mix of old and new.. Their rhythms draw you in, but the talent and heart keeps you listening.“--Steven Ovadia Blues Rock Review “...New heights in blues performance which only age and hard times can forge. The band plays tight and intentional rhythms, while Mosley's voice rings out with truth and grit, his guitar adding to the effect with measured yet impassioned solos.“ --Jon Persson Sound Waves Magazine “...they pull from a long line of blues rock influences: from ZZ Top, Beck, Bogert & Appice and Cream, to more modern bands like Nickelback, Seven Mary Three, 3 Doors Down and even Creed, with Mosley’s Scott Stapp-like leaning voice. They take all of these influences and throw them in the blues rock pot, mix it up with a tasty dose of 12-bar blues, Southern soul and boogie recipe for musical success.“ --John Hubner Whatzup Magazine The Jondo Trio (JD3) - Whatchucan - (BluesMen Channel “Blues Rock Super Hits“) Official Site: YouTube Channel: Facebook: Twitter: LinkedIn: Fandalism: VK: OK: Instagram: Pinterest: Audiomack: Mixcloud: SoundCloud: ReverbNation: Myspace: Tumblr: Imgur: Disqus: Postila: MirTesen: Reddit: Blogger: Genre: Blues, Rock, Blues-Rock, Garage Rock.
